Wouldn’t they just run R1 locally and not have any censorship at all? The model isn’t censored at its core, it’s censored through the system prompt. Perplexity and Huggingface have their own versions of R1 that is not censored.


I tried R1 through Kagi and it’s similarly censored. Even the distill of llama running on Groq is censored.


Kagi may be using the official DeepSeek API and not hosting the model itself. There is work being done to make it completely uncensored:

I was mistaken though, it is more than just a system prompt causing the censorship.


Kagi uses R1 through Fireworks.ai, Together.ai and Groq.
