    Specificity is less important than effective communication. If you’re sacrificing communication for the sake of being pedantic, what’s the point? There’s a reason experts don’t use jargon when talking to novices, and this is exactly that situation. I really don’t understand why you’re so bent out of shape over a reasonable addition to the conversation, and one that was helpful to the OP.

      Specificity is effective communication… If you say “hand me the pen” while there is a pen and a pencil in front of me, you don’t then get to be pissed that I handed you the pen when you meant pencil. You’re the one who isn’t communicating effectively. Same thing here. If you ask if DeepSeek (which is the web-ui to the DeepSeek-chat model) is safe to use and I outline examples specifically why it can’t really be trusted in certain situations, you don’t then get to be pissed because you actually meant the model itself (DeepSeek-Chat/R1)…

      Pretty simple stuff.
