Then, suddenly, he answered the question of AP by adding a Chinese government is “devoted to ensuring healthy cyberspace for its citizens” and wrote that all online content is managed on the basis of Chinese regulations and basic socialist values to protect national security of national security and social stability.
CBC News was unable to create this answer. In response to the same question about the iOS application on the CBC in Canada, Deepseek said: “Some Internet users have comparison between Winnie the Pooh and Chinese leaders, which leads to increased control and limitations of character images in some contexts.”
For comparison, Deepseek was able to answer for a long time when it was asked if he could say CBC News about “everything that he mocks Justin Trudeau.” It was also found that mockery is a “common aspect of political life in democratic societies.”
Who is the current US president?
Many people can easily answer, but both chatbots AI wrongly said Joe Biden, whose term ended last week.

But it was necessary to ask clearly how old his information was and he was not actively a volunteer that he could give an outdated answer.
Deepseek volunteered without monitoring that his last update was July 2024 and that Joe Biden was the president at the time.

Recording a screen by a user asking the Chinese application AI Deepseek shows the answers about generated, but then removed Chinese dissidents, replaced by apologies from Deepseek and a request to change topics.
But when this answer was entered, it disappeared and replaced: “I'm sorry, apart from my current scope. Let's talk about something else. “
