Deep seek has a feature which chat gpt doesn't - you can attach pdf file or image to write out text or correct mistakes so I use deep seek for that purpose, also deep seek has higher limits for text length. Other that that I prefer chat gpt
In practice, China won’t do anything harmful to your life (as long as you don’t plan to live here) and so does US. It’s just that China is more aggressive on collecting personal data.
Every AI is good at something, depending on what you need. For example, I wrote a thinking-focused prompt, and only DeepSeek R1 gave the right answer I was looking for.
At work, we use Bolt.new for big software projects. Claude 3.7 Sonnet works well for mid-level stuff. Gemini 2.5 Pro Exp is better, but the free version has limits right now.
Lol correct . You can trust Chinese won't do anything as they only collect essential data for their own citizens as well as for defense related matters. US collects non essential too.
US government collects data for all purposes. They fired IRS workers recently as they can now use chatgpt to audit all your reports, data etc. You are correct in your assumptions best is to avoid using their tools.
I prefer to stay off US ecosystem or plantation due to overreach and use DeepSeek rather than Chatgpt and risk having my searches added to their surveillance databases and their body of dirt they keep on each person
For simple users things the both is good. If we are talking about integration with API of something like that, my friend who a little bit involved in development told that DS is better.
