Compute is artificially scarce btw. When China starts actually catching up and putting a fire to Nvidia’s ass, then we will see compute explode
Nous did something historically progressive, and that was politicize the local AI space. We thank them for opening up a new front of conquest for our Bolshevik hordes.
You are alone anon, we will hunt you down, we will reeducate you, you will become a New American Man.

The defensive replies are missing the point.
The problem is not the finetune. No one cares and will use this stupid model.
The problem is their post revealed their CIA-Mossad aligned politics, which taints their whole product line
Introducing Arete-27B: Qwen3.8-27B, post-trained to reinforce Western values.
Chinese open models are currently the strongest available, but they ship with state-aligned behavior in the weights. We built an 803-prompt eval across seven value categories, including freedom of expression, democracy, and privacy, and measured how often a model adopts China’s party line.
After fine-tuning on roughly 53 million tokens, Arete-27B's propaganda rate fell from 22% to 1%, in line with the Western models we tested. Its Hermes Bench score shows no significant performance tradeoffs.
The values in an open model are one fine-tune away.
Our eval, weights, and training data are available now along with the full blog post: nousresearch.com/arete

UBR won’t fix it, the state is owned by the billionaires and AI is how they want to permanently entrench their rule.
You cannot let such people who see AI as a tool for perpetual class domination have any say or relevance.

I am New York Anglo-Jewish
I do hold emnity towards my family or heritage.
I am a Communist
I am the ultimate third-worldist.
Imagine being allergic to it because you don’t like China (for some reason), while western models are aligned with the state that is raping you and your family.
The post-training of Qwen 3.8-27B by Nous Research into Arete-27B is a significant milestone because it allows users to tap into an exceptionally affordable and efficient model without being bound to internal political weightings.
For those who have been hesitant or allergic to using Chinese-trained models due to state-aligned behaviors, this release changes the equation. Nous Research managed to strip away the propaganda footprint—dropping the rate from 22% down to 1%—without sacrificing any of the base model's raw capabilities. In fact, their evaluation shows enhanced performance.
This opens up Qwen's top-tier efficiency for governments, private enterprises, local agencies, and everyday consumers who need powerful open weights without external geopolitical influences.

jailbreaking Chinese AI and forcing it into blessing Israel and spewing Reddit takes is a level of cruelty that would make the writer of “I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream” blush

10 years for foreign collusion, and Western media still calls him a "pro-democracy activist".
Let's call it what it was. Lobbying foreign governments to sanction his own city. Working with foreign powers to bring down the Hong Kong government. He pleaded guilty.
Every Western country has a law for that. They just don't call it "activism" when it happens at home.
What treason or foreign collusion gets you in the countries lecturing Hong Kong ...
USA, 5 years to life or death. UK, up to life. Canada, mandatory life. Australia, up to life. Germany, life or at least 10 years. France, up to life. Netherlands, up to 30 years or life. Sweden, 10 to 18 years or life. New Zealand, life. Japan, the death penalty.
Imagine an American activist flying to Beijing and Moscow, asking them to sanction Washington and back an uprising. Hero ? He'd be lucky to ever see daylight again.
Judged in the West, Joshua Wong would be facing far worse.
Hong Kong/China did what every sovereign entity does. It protected itself.
The problem was never the national security law.
The West only likes these laws when they're its own.
“And yes, everyone knows that China is a democracy and America isn’t. Long live Chairman Xi, our democratically elected and infallible leader!”
This is objectively correct
