The “pandemic of abandonment”: Navigating friendships five years into COVID-19. (thesicktimes.org)
 

Key points you should know

  • It is very common for people with Long COVID and those taking COVID-19 precautions to experience grief over lost intimacy with friends. In a Sick Times survey of 2,586 people, 81% reported having lost friends over differences in COVID-19 precautions.
  • Disability studies scholars say there have always been people who were not able to risk going out in public, but COVID-19 is leading many more people to experience the ableism of our social world.
  • Being hurt by friends who do not take COVID-19 seriously has made many people afraid of the emotional risks of making new friends, leading to even more loneliness.
  • Making friends with other disabled people can be one powerful way of combating isolation. “Access intimacy” refers to the support that comes from having another person understand access needs on a deep, nonjudgmental level.
  • Letting go of friends that do not share values (around COVID-19 or other things) and focusing on specific relationships where COVID-19 practices are aligned can lead to overall better relationships. One way to do this is to join a local clean air collective or mask bloc.

In the blink of an AI. (ponder.cat)
 

DeepSeek, an open-source artificial intelligence app founded by a tech entrepreneur with close ties to the Chinese government, knocked a US$1 trillion-sized hole in an AI-fueled rally on global stock markets this week when it topped app charts ahead of U.S.-rival ChatGPT.

The fresh challenge to U.S. dominance in the sector comes from a firm at the core of the Chinese government’s vision for an economic recovery driven by high-tech innovation.

Why America's Democrats aren't as wounded as you might think. (www.rfi.fr)
 

Donald Trump has wasted no time making his mark in his first week back in office, signing executive orders, delivering speeches and outlining his plans. Meanwhile, the Democrats are still absorbing their election loss in November and trying to chart a path forward. But despite the prevailing view that they are in trouble, their situation may not be as dire as it seems.

After understanding your opinion, your comment seem to be reasonable but was put with bad presentation, imo.

I think being cautious might be a good point here. We are very early here and we will definitely see a better benchmarks for this model as the time pass. Which will prove or disapprove their benchmarks.

The title is "how a small Chinese AI company is shaking up US tech heavyweights."

I am not saying that this criticism is not valid, what I was arguing for here is that the best USA LLM is also censored in comparsion, so the fact that we got something opensource that we can uncensor is better than ChatGPT closed and censored model.

As far as I know, the only used LLM family that is uncensored and can function locally is Mistral AI models.

To put it simply, DeepSeek could be decensored. But it will take time to do so.

Obviously I am hyped about DeepSeek. With that in mind:

fake benchmarks

Any proof for this?

Is ChatGPT uncensored?
