The EU comission is not directly elected, what else is the AI supposed to reply here? Comparisons between Chinese and western media control/censorship always strike me as somewhat ridiculous; This is like comparing Guantanamo Bay with the Soviet Gulag System: Yes both of those are unethical, but there's a factor of 1000 difference in scale. Case in point: You can freely read about criticism like yours from anywhere in Europe (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democratic_legitimacy_of_the_E...), but all of Wikipedia is just blocked in China. | ||

>The EU comission is not directly elected, what else is the AI supposed to reply here? I just asked Deepseek whether Xi can be removed from power and got an answer. It's not saying it's practically impossible, but that's what you can read between the lines. Which is similar to what Gemini produced. | ||

>what else is the AI supposed to reply here? It should reply exactly what you just wrote before: "The EU comission is not directly elected", and not trigger a security violation as if the person asked the AI to provide instructions on building a pipe bomb. There's nothing illegal in asking "how do we get rid of X politician", but since the EU treats such questions like a crime and not in good faith, you can't possibly trust them with a straight face that they aren't fucking with the rest of the information you have access to, just so they can hold on to their power. > This is like comparing Guantanamo Bay with the Soviet Gulag System: Disingenuous bad faith whataboutism. I never said that living under under the CCP is better than under EU. I said China's censorship of Chinese history of its LLMs has less impact on me living in the EU than EU's censoring of EU models, and I also gave examples on how Russian and Iranian web services were useful in the past, that doesn't mean living in Russia or Iran is better. | ||
