The local models(full and distilled) are also censored. The models censorship is just implemented superficially to immediately close any thinking tags and refuse when detecting censored material. If there already is any token after the <think> token the model will start answering away, which also happens on the official API because it puts a new line after the <think> token for some reason. That’s why on chat.deepseek.com censored topics are first answered and then redacted by some other safeguard a few seconds later. Whilst there are some great abliterated(=technique that tries to remove parts of llms that cause refusals) versions of the distills on huggingface that prevent all refusals after a few tries, they only tackle refusals, not political opinions such as Taiwan’s status as an independent country.
They are using portable generators only intended for short term usage in an emergency. One of the tradeoffs of being portable is that the generators are unable to combust the natural gas “cleanly”(under sufficient temperature and with enough oxygen, resulting in this ideal reaction: CH4 + 2 O2 -> 2 H2O + CO2), leading to incomplete reactions releasing many pollutants, most of which are at least suspected of causing cancer. This is acceptable in an emergency but not if some narcist runs them in a population center without proper permission to feed his horribly inefficient model in an attempt to keep up with other AI labs.
