Baidu doesn't honor web server hint files like robots.txt. After trying to get them to stop, I ended up hunting down all their server subnets and doing a mass block. Baidu acts like the CCP. They take, take, take, without permission, when asked nicely to take just a little and be a good neighbor. Blocking wasn't what I wanted, but after looking at the Baidu behavior and lake of any referrals, banning them was the best idea.

There are AI open source projects that have been taken by almost all of these AI chat systems and tuned for their needs. It is all in the training with very little original work performed by Baidu. Don't get me wrong. The effort to tune and train is non-trivial, so there is much work involved.

Be suspicious of AI running on someone else's computers. Everything you say/write will be used.

If it's coming from China, broke.

claiming it rivals the capabilities of OpenAI's latest ChatGPT.

Like most claims coming out of China, this is pure lies. You can't even ask it about Winnie the Pooh without being banned:

And as for Taiwan, Tibet, Uyghur genocide, Tiananmen Massacre, Hong Kong protests, Falun Gong, democracy, Liu Xiaobo, Jimmy Lai, Joshua Wong, etc. etc. etc.....

Like all other online things in China, it will be run by the CCP.

"China says....." Have you seen Chinese AI? It's a complete joke. Heck, Baidu itself is total garbage.

So, how is it the performance about discussing things "sensitive" for the CCP?

Good to see China is still good at stealing technology. Haven't lost their touch.
