Neat stuff.

Interesting. The gist is that if Penrose is right then consciousness requires a lot more computing power than believed. Even so I say an AI does not have to be conscious as humans are to be an extreme threat.

Did you know, Deepseek sends data from the machine using it to a server in China and a Chinese owned company in London... Data packets range from 20-60 in size 
If you ask Deepseek about it, it lies to the user and tells you it doesn't send any data to China.. I find that interesting.

Deepseek service (like just about all services) does that.

But the Deepseek code is open source, and any company can take that code, modify it as they wish, and deploy it as a service.

If you want Deepseek LLM hosted iby an American company that says in documents that the doesn't do that, you can get it there.

For example:
