More honest than I would have expected.
Once Elon dewokifies grok, i bet thechinese models will be more transparent
Same when you ask western LLM's about Israel / Palestine conflict which is much much worse, it will always downplay palestinian suffering.
But yeah both are very bad.
Which "Western LLMs" are you thinking about, specifically? Just tried with GPT-OSS-120b MXFP4 loaded via vLLM, and seemed to have handled it fine, no downplaying of widespread destruction of Gaza with civilian causalities back in 2009: https://gist.github.com/embedding-shapes/78719664df5d299938c...
Maybe I'm not asking the question the right way?
I don't think that in particular is the LLM manufacturer downplaying that but just the amount of sources LLM was trained on does.
vs. in case of chinese it's more targeted censoring.
How would you know? What world knowledge do you have access to that they do not?
eyes plus access to non-US media
I follow experts from doctors without borders, red cross, ICC, amnesty and lots of other top NGO's who actually visit the place - and they all more or less call this an ethnic cleansing, the most horrific thing seen, and it's a genocide actively perpetrated by the the west, it's beyond disturbing.
There's talks of upwards of 500 thousand deaths now, half a million, most of them civilians, women and children.
It's not in any way controversial anymore and the info is out there and has been for a long time.
That people like you call this into question, i'm truly shocked at the heartlessness. It's a slaughterhouse, just like the original holocaust and industrial in its scale and efficiency which makes it that more frightening.

Pretty sure he was rich before Windows reached that point.
