It seems Europe is many years behind in tech. Maybe for AI models they are just a decade behind, but as far as producing hardware capable to run SOA models they lag tens of years.
So "Europe's Leading AI Model" is just a modified Chinese model which does worse than the better Chinese models? It seems Europe is many years behind in tech. Maybe for AI models they are just a decade behind, but as far as producing hardware capable to run SOA models they lag tens of years.
The company sounds like a bunch of hot air to me.

As a non-European, I care. I definitely want choice in this matter, as too many things can be baked into models that we can't really know until it comes up. For instance, I heard one of the Chinese models has some interesting "history" "facts" built into it. That's major , and can influence a lot more than just asking it for that particular history lesson. I don't want just 1 LLM. I want a great LLM from every major…

"We must proceed completely peacefully and deliberately, adapt if necessary and butter up the opponent [literally: smear honey on their mouths], but when we are finally ready, we will put them all against the wall. (...) Dig a pit, all in and quicklime on top."

"The worse Germany is doing, the better it is for the AfD. [...] Therefore we have to consider a tactic between: How bad can things get for Germany? And: How much can we provoke? [...] Because then the AfD does better. We can always just shoot them all later. That's not an issue at all. Or gas them, or however you want. I don't care!"
-- Christian Lüth, AfD Press spokesman [1]
"It doesn't matter, nothing will change, even if we were to eat chalk [act harmless]. Even if we said: yes, we are separating from X, Y and Z now and acting moderate here."

Easy enough to find out, ask it a whole bunch of questions about politically sensitive things that would be impossible to publish on CCTV, the Peoples Daily, CGTN, etc. If they didn't train the model and just fine tuned it, a lot of "don't talk about Tibet or the Dalai Lama or what happened in 1989" will be perma baked into it.

That's not actually true though. Most Chinese models are fully able to chat about those and content filtering is just applied at serving time.

I wouldn't trust a single word coming out of an AfD reps mouth. Here's some choice quotes from AfD politicians, translated to English: "We must proceed completely peacefully and deliberately, adapt if necessary and butter up the opponent [literally: smear honey on their mouths], but when we are finally ready, we will put them all against the wall. (...) Dig a pit, all in and quicklime on top." -- Holger Arppe, former…

The answer is "it depends", here's GLM5.3 when asked about Tienanmen Square in 1989: https://ibb.co/gLgFSV0J

It even mentions the censoring.
