| | | In its quest for efficiency and market penetration, DeepSeek apparently does not take steps which other AI systems consider essential. This is probably good-enough-for-government-work consumer computing. AI for the masses, if you will.
Anyone considering DeepSeek should carefully reads its Terms of Use. Look at this provision which, in my view, allows DS to for all practical purposes hack into your email service. And, if you wish to sue it for some reason, I wish you good luck as suit must be filed in China. Legal remedies there are an illusion. Given DS’s provenance, its TOU means that I will never use it but will be surprised if 0.0001% of users have a clue:
chat.deepseek.com
<<<3.3 To fulfill legal and compliance requirements, DeepSeek has the right to use technical means to review the behavior and information of users using the Services, including but not limited to reviewing inputs and outputs, establishing risk filtering mechanisms, and creating databases for illegal content features.>>>>
Parse that language carefully.
TikTok is nothing compared to DS’s potential intrusion into privacy. Anyone using DS should beware.
DS apparently does have a second item on its menu which somehow involves reasoning. I know very little about it.
You might find this interesting, Humanity’s Last Exam, in which I don’t believe DS has yet participated.
