i can’t think of a single commercial use case, outside of education, where that’s even relevant. But i agree it’s messed up from an ethical / moral perspective.


Well those are the overt political biases. Would you trust DeepSeek to advise on negotiating with a Chinese business?

I’m no xenophobe, but seeing the internal reasoning of DeepSeek explicitly planning to ensure alignment with the government give me pause.


i wouldn’t use AI for negotiating with a business period. I’d hire a professional human that has real hands on experience working with chinese businesses?

seems like a weird thing to use AI for, regardless of who created the model.


Interesting. I want my AI tools to be suitable for any kind of brainstorming or iteration.

But yeah if you’re scoping your uses to things where you’re sure a government-controlled LLM won’t bias results, it should be fine.


Yeah i can definitely see some situations where i’d be wary, i agree with you. Wouldn’t impact my work but i see the concern.

I use LLM’s for technical solution brainstorming, rubber-ducking technical problems, and learning (software languages, devops, software design, etc.)

Your mileage will vary of course!
