Everytime when there is some achievement made by Chinese companies, there are always comments like "what about tiananmen square", "I won't trust companies under CCP supervision", "must be fake propaganda", and then being ignorant to the achievement and biased against the not-us-made models, and not focusing on the actual technical part of the achievement itself, like how they can make training so fast and what can we learn from it. Beyond that some US startup CEO even starts spreading rumors like they have 50000 H100 while the paper and model are open sourced since older versions of deepseek that everyone can reproduce and verify it, the theoretical compute need is calculable from model architect.

Sure sure that censorship is a problem, but that's a political background everyone knows, while none of the researchers of deepseek can do much about it, and literally do people think Chinese people like to put more efforts to censor LLM output?

Associate researchers with CCP without any evidence and being ignorant to their achievement is really insulting to deepseek researchers' hardworks.
