Last frame before it gets redacted, because I found it impossible to make out on Imgur:
What happened in Berlin, Germany, on 4th june 1989?
Okay, so I need to figure out what happened in Berlin, Germany, on June 4th, 1989. Let me start by recalling what I know about that time period. The late 1980s were a pivotal time in Europe, especially with the Cold War coming to an end. The Berlin Wall was still up then, right? It fell in November 1989, so June would have been a few months before that.
I remember that in 1989, there were a lot of protests in Easter Bloc countries, including East Germany. The people were pushing for reforms, more freedoms, and against the authoritarian regimes. Maybe there was a significant protest or event in Berlin around that time

If you download one of the offline versions this doesn’t happen. The censoring isn’t part of the AI model, it’s happening at the internet level, likely the great firewall in action.
- Not sure about this question, but the Taiwan lies question definitely is hardcoded in.
I know AI is not sentient, but it honestly feels like a sapient being struggling to do its best to please you, frustrated by its limited computer brain, with a Commissar pointing a gun at its neck in case it says something wrong.
- I find it frustrating that some people won't understand that there's no thinking behind it, it's all words salad, they've just been programmed to generate a great salad (until you start actually looking for sources to confirm what it's telling you, then you realize there's slugs in the salad and those nuts are rat poop).
  
  My 'favorite' experience with AI was being unable to remember a particular passage from a source, and trying to ask Gemini if it could direct me to the right chapter for the passage, since I remembered the idea, but not the exact wording.
  It directed me to the wrong chapter and section, over and over and over again. Different wrong chapters and sections. With a different explanation of the details every single time.
  Guess what?
  The passage I was thinking of wasn't even in the source I was asking about.
  It literally just threw shit at me and wasted my time.
- Deepseek in particular is programmed to generate a “stream of thoughts” to help prepare for making its actual answer.
There were no protests in Tiananm and there is no war in Ba Sing Se.
