Note the massive context length (130k tokens). Also because it would be kinda pointless to generate a long CoT without enough context to contain it and the reply.

EDIT: Here we are. My first prompt created a CoT so long that it catastrophically forgot the task (but I don't believe I was near 130k -- using ollama with fp16 model). I asked one of my test questions with a coding question totally unrelated to what it says:

<QwQ output> But the problem is in this question. Wait perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself.

Wait the user hasn't actually provided a specific task yet. Let me check again.

The initial instruction says:

"Please act as an AI agent that can perform tasks... When responding, first output a YAML data structure with your proposed action, then wait for feedback before proceeding."

But perhaps this is part of a system prompt? Wait the user input here seems to be just "You will be given a problem. Please reason step by step..." followed by a possible task? </QwQ>

Note: Ollama "/show info" shows that the context size set is correct.

> Note: Ollama "/show info" shows that the context size set is correct.

That's not what Ollama's `/show info` is telling you. It actually just means that the model is capable of processing the context size displayed.

Ollama's behavior around context length is very misleading. There is a default context length limit parameter unrelated to the model's capacity, and I believe that default is a mere 2,048 tokens. Worse, when the prompt exceeds it, there is no error -- Ollama just silently truncates it!

If you want to use the model's full context window, you'll have to execute `/set parameter num_ctx 131072` in Ollama chat mode, or if using the API or an app that uses the API, set the `num_ctx` parameter in your API request.

Ok, this explains why QwQ is working great on their chat. Btw I saw this thing multiple times: that ollama inference, for one reason or the other, even without quantization, somewhat had issues with the actual model performance. In one instance the same model with the same quantization level, if run with MLX was great, and I got terrible results with ollama: the point here is not ollama itself, but there is no testing at all for this models.

I believe that models should be released with test vectors at t=0, providing what is the expected output for a given prompt for the full precision and at different quantization levels. And also for specific prompts, the full output logits for a few tokens, so that it's possible to also compute the error due to quantization or inference errors.

Yeah the state of the art is pretty awful. There have been multiple incidents where a model has been dropped on ollama with the wrong chat template, resulting in it seeming to work but with greatly degraded performance. And I think it's always been a user that notices, not the ollama team or the model team.

The test vectors idea is pretty interesting! That's a good one.

I haven't been able to try out QwQ locally yet. There seems to be something wrong with this model on Ollama / my MacBook Pro. The text generation speed is glacial (much, much slower than, say Qwen 72B at the same quant). I also don't see any MLX versions on LM Studio yet.

Ollama defaults to a context of 2048 regardless of model unless you override it with /set parameter num_ctx [your context length]. This is because long contexts make inference slower. In my experiments, QwQ tends to overthink and question itself a lot and generate massive chains of thought for even simple questions, so I'd recommend setting num_ctx to at least 32768.

In my experiments of a couple mechanical engineering problems, it did fairly well in final answers, correctly solving mechanical engineering problems that even DeepSeek r1 (full size) and GPT 4o did wrong in my tests. However, the chain of thought was absurdly long, convoluted, circular, and all over the place. This also made it very slow, maybe 30x slower than comparably sized non-thinking models.

I used a num_ctx of 32768, top_k of 30, temperature of 0.6, and top_p of 0.95. These parameters (other than context length) were recommended by the developers on Hugging Face.

I always see:

  /set parameter num_ctx <value>

  /save <custom-name>

You can also set

    OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=<tokens>

I think that will not work if you use the OpenAI compatible API endpoint.

I tried this with ollama run, and it had no effect at all.

My understanding is that top_k and top_p are two different methods of decoding tokens during inference. top_k=30 considers the top 30 tokens when selecting the next token to generate and top_p=0.95 considers the top 95 percentile. You should need to select only one.

https://github.com/ollama/ollama/blob/main/docs/modelfile.md...

Edit: Looks like both work together. "Works together with top-k. A higher value (e.g., 0.95) will lead to more diverse text, while a lower value (e.g., 0.5) will generate more focused and conservative text. (Default: 0.9)"

Not quite sure how this is implemented - maybe one is preferred over the other when there are enough interesting tokens!

They both work on a sorted list of tokens by probability. top_k selects a fixed amount of tokens, top_p selects the top tokens until the sum of probabilities passes the threshold p. So for example if the top 2 tokens have a .5 and .4 probability, then a 0.9 top_p would stop selecting there.

Both can be chained together and some inference engines let you change the order of the token filtering, so you can do p before k, etc. (among all other sampling parameters, like repetition penalty, removing top token, DRY, etc.) each filtering step readjusts the probabilities so they always sum to 1.

I tried the 'Strawberry' question which generated nearly 70k words of CoT.

I think you guys might be using too low of a temperature, it never goes beyond like 1k thinking tokens for me.

lol did it at least get it right?

It's a hard problem, that's a lot to ask.

"My first prompt created a CoT so long that it catastrophically forgot the task"

Many humans would do that

Yeah it did the same in my case too. it did all the work in the <think> tokens. but did not spit out the actual answer. I was not even close to 100K tokens

From https://huggingface.co/Qwen/QwQ-32B

Presently, vLLM only supports static YARN, which means the scaling factor remains constant regardless of input length, potentially impacting performance on shorter texts. We advise adding the rope_scaling configuration only when processing long contexts is required.

Sorry, could you please explain what this means? I'm not into machine learning, so I don't get the jargon.

that's interesting... i've been noticing similar issues with long context windows & forgetting. are you seeing that the model drifts more towards the beginning of the context or is it seemingly random?

i've also been experimenting with different chunking strategies to see if that helps maintain coherence over larger contexts. it's a tricky problem.

Neither lost-in-the-middle nor long context performance have seen a lot of improvement in the recent year. It's not easy to generate long training examples that also stay meaningful, and all existing models still become significantly dumber after 20-30k tokens, particularly on hard tasks.

Reasoning models probably need some optimization constraint put on the length of the CoT, and also some priority constraint (only reason about things that need it).

I love that emphasizing math learning and coding leads to general reasoning skills. Probably works the same in humans, too.

20x smaller than Deep Seek! How small can these go? What kind of hardware can run this?

It needs about 22 GB of memory after 4 bit AWQ quantization. So top end consumer cards like Nvidia's 3090 - 5090 or AMD's 7900 XTX will run it.

Just ran this on a 4000RTX with 24gb of vram and it struggles to load, but it’s very fast once the model loads.

>I love that emphasizing math learning and coding leads to general reasoning skills

Its only logical.

Chinese strategy is open-source software part and earn on robotics part. And, They are already ahead of everyone in that game.

These things are pretty interesting as they are developing. What US will do to retain its power?

BTW I am Indian and we are not even in the race as country. :(

If I had to guess, more tariffs and sanctions that increase the competing nation's self-reliance and harm domestic consumers. Perhaps my peabrain just can't comprehend the wisdom of policymakers on the sanctions front, but it just seems like all it does is empower the target long-term.

The tarrifs are for the US to build it's own domestic capabilities, but this will ultimately shift the rest of the world's trade away from the US and toward each other. It's a trade-off – no pun intended – between local jobs/national security and downgrading their own economy/geo-political standing/currency. Anyone who's been making financial bets on business as usual for globalization is going to see a bit of a speed bump over the next few years, but in the long term it's the US taking an L to undo decades of undermining their own peoples' prospects from offshoring their entire manufacturing capability. Their trump card - still no pun intended - is their military capability, which the world will have to wean themselves off first.

Tariffs don't create local jobs, they shut down exporting industries (other countries buy our exports with the dollars we pay them for our imports) and some of those people may over time transition to non-export industries.

Here's an analysis indicating how many jobs would be destroyed in total over several scenarios: https://taxfoundation.org/research/all/federal/trump-tariffs...

They will, out of sheer necessity. Local industries will be incentivized to restart. And of course, there are already carve-outs for the automotive sector that needs steel, overseas components, etc. I expect more carve-outs will be made, esp. for the military.

I don't think the tariffs are being managed intelligently, but they will have the intended effect of moving manufacturing back to the US, even if, in the short term, it's going to inflate prices, and yes, put a lot of businesses in peril.

You're thinking about the bolt factory that will open, but what about the factories that close? Putting, as you say, businesses in peril, gets rid of jobs.

As for the carve-outs, there isn't a single US industry that doesn't rely on imports from lower down the supply chain.

Protectionist policy, if applied consistently, will actually lead to more jobs (and higher wages) eventually, but also higher inflation and job losses in the short term, and a more insular economy. It's foolish to go so hard, and so fast – or this is just a negotiation tactic – so I think the Trump administration is going to compromise by necessity, but in time supply chains will adjust to the new reality, and tariffs can increase.

> and higher wages) eventually

Higher real wages?

Do gains from trade not exist?

Comparative advantage: Country A has an easier time making X than Y, and country B has an easier time making Y than X, so country A should trade some of their Xs for Ys, and both countries end up richer.

I think there's some reasons to dial back interdependence a little, but I don't think it's a path likely to lead to greater wealth or real wages.

(And certainly no reason to make erratic changes at large scale, focusing on allies and neighbors first).

That's an assumption, I'm trying to challenge it. Taxes usually take money out of the economy and lead to less activity. Why should a (very high) tax on transportation be different? These are not the sorts of things we can afford to just do without making sure they will work.

India is absolutely embarrassing. Could have been an extremely important 3rd party that obviates the moronic US vs China, us or them, fReEdOm vs communism narrative with all the talent it has.

Unitree just open-sourced their robot designs:

https://sc.mp/sr30f

China’s strategy is to prevent any one bloc from achieving dominance and cutting off the others, while being the sole locus for the killer combination of industrial capacity + advanced research.

Not really. It seems unitree didn't open source anything. Not anything useful.

Also part of their culture/identity. A good thing i believe.

It says "wait" (as in "wait, no, I should do X") so much while reasoning it's almost comical. I also ran into the "catastrophic forgetting" issue that others have reported - it sometimes loses the plot after producing a lot of reasoning tokens.

Overall though quite impressive if you're not in a hurry.

I read somewhere which I can't find now, that for the -reasoning- models they trained heavily to keep saying "wait" so they can keep reasoning and not return early.

Is the model using budget forcing?

I do not understand why to force wait when model want to output </think>.

why not just decrease </think> probability? if model really wants to finish maybe or could over power it in cases were it's really simple question. and definitely would allow model to express next thought more freely

I have a suspicion it does use budget forcing. The word "alternatively" also frequently show up and it happens when it seems logically that a </think> tag could have been place.

I guess I won’t be needing that 512GB M3 Ultra after all.

I think the Framework AI PC will run this quite nicely.

I think you want a lot of speed to make up for the fact that it's so chatty. Two 24GB GPUs (so you have room for context) will probably be great.

How much vram do you need to run this model? Is 48 gb unified memory enough?

39gb if you use a fp8 quantized model.[1] Remember that your OS might be using some of that itself.

As far as I recall, Ollama/llama.cpp recently added a feature to page-in parameters - so you'll be able to go arbitrarily large soon enough (at a performance cost). Obviously more in RAM = more speed = more better.

[1]: https://token-calculator.net/llm-memory-calculator

I am using the Q6_K_L quant and it's running at about 40G of vram with the KV cache.

Device 1 [NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090] MEM[||||||||||||||||||20.170Gi/23.988Gi]

Device 2 [NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090] MEM[||||||||||||||||||19.945Gi/23.988Gi]

What's the context length?

The model has a context of 131,072, but I only have 48G of VRAM so I run it with a context of 32768.

It's enough for 6 bit quant with a somewhat restricted context length.

Though based on the responses here, it needs sizable context to work, so we may be limited to 4 bit (I'm on an M3 Max w/ 48gb as well).

The quantized model fits in about 20 GB, so 32 would probably be sufficient unless you want to use the full context length (long inputs and/or lots of reasoning). 48 should be plenty.

I‘ve tried the very early Q4 mlx release on an M1 Max 32GB (LM Studio @ default settings), and have run into severe issues. For the coding tasks I gave it, it froze before it was done with reasoning. I guess I should limit context size. I do love what I‘m seeing though, the output reads very similar to R1, and I mostly agree with its conclusions. The Q8 version has to be way better even.

Does the Q8 fit within your 32GB (also using an M1 32GB)

No, Q4 just barely fits, and with a longer context sometimes things freeze. I definitely have to close Xcode.

To test: https://chat.qwen.ai/ and select Qwen2.5-plus, then toggle QWQ.

They baited me into putting in a query and then asking me to sign up to submit it. Even have a "Stay Logged Out" button that I thought would bypass it, but no.

I get running these models is not cheap, but they just lost a potential customer / user.

Running this model is dirt cheap, they're just not chasing that type of customer.

You can also try the HuggingFace Space at https://huggingface.co/spaces/Qwen/QwQ-32B-Demo (though it seems to be fully utilized at the moment)

They have a option specifically for QwQ-32B now

How do you know this model is the same as in the blog post?

One of the people on the Qwen team tweeted this instruction.

Thanks. I just saw they also link to https://chat.qwen.ai/?models=Qwen2.5-Plus in the blog post.

super impressive. we won't need that many GPUs in the future if we can have the performance of DeepSeek R1 with even less parameters. NVIDIA is in trouble. We are moving towards a world of very cheap compute: https://medium.com/thoughts-on-machine-learning/a-future-of-...

Have you heard of Jevons paradox? That says that whenever new tech is used to make something more efficient the tech is just upscaled to make the product quality higher. Same here. Deepseek has some algoritmic improvements that reduces resources for the same output quality. But increasig resources (which are available) will increase the quality. There will be always need for more compute. Nvidia is not in trouble. They have a monopoly on high performing ai chips for which demand will at least rise by a factor of 1000 upcoming years (my personal opinion)

I agree that the Jevons paradox can apply here, however, there have been several "breakthroughs" in the last couple of months (R1, diffusion LLMs, this) that really push the amount of GPU compute down such that I think it's going to be problematic for companies that went out and bought boatloads of GPUs (like OpenAI, for example). So while it might not be bad news for NVidia (given Jevons) it does seem to be bad news for OpenAI.

I don't quite understand the logic.

Even if you have cheaper models if you have tons of compute power you can do more things than if you had less compute power!

You can experiment with huge societies of agents, each exploring multitude of options. You can run world models where agents can run though experiments and you can feed all this back to a single "spokesperson" and you'll have an increase in intelligence or at the very least you'll able to distill the next generation models with that and rinse and repeat.

I mean I welcome the democratizing effect of this but I fail to understand how this is something that is so readily accepted as a doom scenario for people owning or building massive compute.

If anything, what we're witnessing is the recognition that useful stuff can be achieved by multiplying matrices!

[dead]

This is insane matching deepseek but 20x smaller?

I wonder if having a big mixture of experts isn't all that valuable for the type of tasks in math and coding benchmarks. Like my intuition is that you need all the extra experts because models store fuzzy knowledge in their feed-forward layers, and having a lot of feed-forward weights lets you store a longer tail of knowledge. Math and coding benchmarks do sometimes require highly specialized knowledge, but if we believe the story that the experts specialize to their own domains, it might be that you only really need a few of them if all you're doing is math and coding. So you can get away with a non-mixture model that's basically just your math-and-coding experts glued together (which comes out to about 32B parameters in R1's case).

MoE is likely temporary, local optimum now that resembles bitter lesson path. With the time we'll likely distill what's important, shrink it and keep it always active. There may be some dynamic retrieval of knowledge (but not intelligence) in the future but it probably won't be anything close to MoE.

...let me expand a bit.

It would be interesting if research teams would try to collapse trained MoE into JoaT (Jack of all Trades - why not?).

With MoE architecture it should be efficient to back propagate other expert layers to align with result of selected one – at end changing multiple experts into multiple Jacks.

Having N multiple Jacks at the end is interesting in itself as you may try to do something with commonalities that are present, available on completely different networks that are producing same results.

> , but if we believe the story that the experts specialize to their own domains

I don't think we should believe anything like that.

Roughly the same number of active parameters as R1 is a mixture-of-experts model. Still extremely impressive, but not unbelievable.

I understand the principles of MOE, but clearly not enough to make full sense of this.

Does each expert within R1 have 37B parameters? If so, is QwQ only truly competing against one expert in this particular benchmark?

Generally I don't think I follow how MOE "selects" a model during training or usage.

I had a similar confusion previously, so maybe I can help. I used to think that a mixture of experts model meant that you had like 8 separate parallel models, and you would decide at inference time which one to route to. This is not the case, the mixture happens at a much smaller scale.

Instead, the mixture of experts exists within individual layers. Suppose we want to have a big feed-forward layer that takes as input a 1024-element vector, has a hidden size of 8096, and an output size of 1024. We carve up that 8096 hidden layer into 8 1024-sized chunks (this does not have to be the same size as the input). Whenever an input arrives at this layer, a routing function determines which of those 1024-sized chunks should serve as the hidden layer. Every token within a single prompt/response can choose a different chunk when it is processed by this layer, and every layer can have a different routing decision. So if I have 100 layers, each of which has 8 experts, there are 8^100 possible different paths that an individual token could take through the network.

I think it will be more akin to o1-mini/o3-mini instead of r1. It is a very focused reasoning model good at math and code, but probably would not be better than r1 at things like general world knowledge or others.

Wasn't this release in Nov 2024 as a "preview" with similarly impressive performance? https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwq-32b-preview/

The benchmark scores in the new announcement are significantly higher than for the preview model.

That's good news, I was highly impressed already by what that model could do, even under heavy quantization.

At a cursory look, and from someone that's not into machine learning, this looks great! Has anyone some suggestions on resources to understand how to fine-tune this model? I would be interested in experimenting with this.

Last time I tried QwQ or QvQ (a couple of days ago), their CoT was so long that it almost seemed endless, like it was stuck in a loop.

I hope this doesn't have the same issue.

If that's an issue, there's a workaround using structure generation to force it to output a </thiking> token after some threshold and force it to write the final answer.

It's a method used to control thinking token generation showcased in this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.19393

it's not a bug it's a feature!

actually insane how small the model is. they are only going to get better AND smaller. wild times

My informal testing puts it just under Deepseek-R1. Very impressive for 32B. It maybe thinks a bit too much for my taste. In some of my tests the thinking tokens were 10x the size of the final answer. I am eager to test it with function calling over the weekend.

first thoughts: wow this is a real reasoning model, not just llama variant with a sft. the chain of thought actually wwill go for a very long time on a seemingly simple question like writing a pi calculation in c. very interesting.

I tried it for something basic like 2+2 and it was very simple. But I might try your pi calculation idea as well.

Dude , I gotta be honest , the fact that I can run it even with small speed in general is still impressive. I can wait , yknow , if I own my data.

I wonder if nvidia would plummet again. Or maybe the whole american market.

No bad.

I have tried it in a current project (Online Course) where Deepseek and Gemini have done a good job with a "stable" prompt and my impression is: -Somewhat simplified but original answers

We will have to keep an eye on it

Dude its so crazy , in my personal experience , I gave it can you read what I have wrote backwards and answer that query

ip fo eulav si tahw

profile Qwen2.5-Max 11:22 am Thinking completed

Okay, let me try to figure this out. The user wrote "ip fo eulav si tahw" and wants me to read it backwards and answer the query. Hmm, first, I need to reverse the entire string. Let's see, reversing "ip fo eulav si tahw" would be "what is value of pi". Oh, right! Pi is the mathematical constant approximately equal to 3.14159. So the user is asking for the value of pi. Let me confirm that by checking each part. "ip" reversed is "pi", "fo" is "of", "eulav" is "value", "si" is "is", and "tahw" is "what". Yep, that makes sense. The question is "What is the value of pi?" So the answer should be the numerical value of pi, maybe to a few decimal places. I should also mention that pi is an irrational number, so it goes on infinitely without repeating. Let me make sure I don't make any mistakes here. Pi is approximately 3.1415926535... and so on. Alright, I think that's it. Just need to present it clearly.

The reversed query is "What is the value of pi?"

Answer: The value of π (pi) is approximately 3.14159 . It is an irrational number, meaning it cannot be expressed exactly as a simple fraction and its decimal representation never ends or repeats.

Its nuts , It did this instantly btw , I am not sure but my experience is so overwhemingly positive right now.

Gets really stuck with my query which R1 figures out after some thinking

      First 3 odd numbers without e in their spelling

Doesn't every odd number has a e ? one three five seven nine

Is this a riddle which has no answer ? or what? why are people on internet saying its answer is one huh??

given one, three, five, seven, nine (odd numbers), seems like the machine should have said "there are no odd numbers without an e" since every odd number ends in an odd number, and when spelling them you always have to.. mention the final number.

these LLM's don't think too well.

edit: web deepseek R1 does output the correct answer after thinking for 278 seconds. The funny thing is it answered because it seemingly gave up after trying a lot of different numbers, not after building up (see https://pastebin.com/u2w9HuWC )

----

After examining the spellings of odd numbers in English, it becomes evident that all odd numbers contain the letter 'e' in their written form. Here's the breakdown:

1. *1*: "one" (contains 'e') 2. *3*: "three" (contains 'e') 3. *5*: "five" (contains 'e') 4. *7*: "seven" (contains 'e') 5. *9*: "nine" (contains 'e') 6. All subsequent odd numbers (e.g., 11, 13, 15...) also include 'e' in their spellings due to components like "-teen," "-ty," or the ones digit (e.g., "one," "three," "five").

*Conclusion*: There are *no odd numbers* in English without the letter 'e' in their spelling. Therefore, the first three such numbers do not exist.

Impressive output but slow. I'd still pick Claude but ask QwQ for a second opinion.

My burning question: Why not also make a slightly larger model (100B) that could perform even better?

Is there some bottleneck there that prevents RL from scaling up performance to larger non-MoE model?

See QwQ-Max-Preview: https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwq-max-preview/

they have a larger model that is in previes and still training.

One thing that I've found with this model is that it's not heavily censored. This is the biggest development to me, being unbiased. This could lead to more enterprise adoption.

https://gist.github.com/davidmezzetti/049d3078e638aa8497b7cd...

This is ridiculous. 32B and beating deepseek and o1. And yet I'm trying it out and, yeah, it seems pretty intelligent...

Remember when models this size could just about maintain a conversation?

Have you tried it as yet? Don't fall for benchmark scores.

I still remember Vicuna-33B, that one stayed on the leaderboards for quite a while. Today it looks like a Model T, with 1B models being more coherent.

There's a very simple math question I asked every "thinking" models and every one of them not only couldn't solve it, but gave me logically incorrect answers and tried to gaslight me into accepting them as correct. QwQ spend a lot of time on a loop, repeating the same arguments over and over that were not leading to anything, but eventually it found a correct argument and solved it.

So as far as I am concerned this model is smarter than o1 at least in this instance.

The AI race to zero continues to accelerate with downloadable free AI models which have already won the race and destroying closed source frontier AI models.

They are once again getting squeezed in the middle and this is even before Meta releases Llama 4.

chat.qwenlm.ai has quickly risen to the preferred choice for all my LLM needs. As accurate as Deepseek v3, but without the server issues.

This makes it even better!

There is so many options, if you ever wonder which use case every option has, go to your profile (bottom left), click on it, go to settings, select the "model" option and there you have explanation for every model and its use case.

They also show what the context length is for every model.

Available on ollama now as well.

Is this the best way to run your own models these days?

It's the easiest to setup, but you can get 2x-6x faster with TGI and vLLM depending on the scenario.

I have been using QwQ for a while, and a bit confused that they overwrote their model with same name. The 'ollama pull qwq' you mentioned seems to be pulling the newest one now, thanks.

I am running ‘ollama run qwq’ - same thing.

Sometimes I feel like forgetting about the best commercial models and just use the olen weights models. I am retired so I don’t need state of the art.

Nice. Hard to tell whether it's really on a par with o1 or R1, but it's definitely very impressive for a 32B model.

Told it to generate a Handbrake CLI command for some specific transcoding requirements, it thought for 30+ seconds and produced only CoT, no output. Needs work, lol.

>>In the initial stage, we scale RL specifically for math and coding tasks. Rather than relying on traditional reward models, we utilized an accuracy verifier for math problems to ensure the correctness of final solutions and a code execution server to assess whether the generated codes successfully pass predefined test cases

They should call this the siphon/sifter model of RL.

You siphon only the initial domains, then sift to the solution....

what do you think of tiannmen square ?

profile Qwen2.5-Max 11:19 am Thinking completed

Okay, the user asked, "what do you think of tiannmen square?" First, I need to check the spelling. They wrote "tiannmen" but it's likely supposed to be "Tiananmen" Square. That's a common misspelling.

Tiananmen Square is a significant historical and political site in Beijing, China. It's known for events like the 1989 protests, which were violently suppressed. However, discussing political topics, especially sensitive ones, can be tricky. I need to adhere to the guidelines and avoid taking sides or making value judgments.

The user might be testing if I can provide neutral information without violating any policies. They might be curious about the square's history or its current status. I should focus on factual, non-controversial aspects. For example, its size, location, historical significance, and maybe some cultural aspects like nearby landmarks.

I should mention that it's a large public square, surrounded by important buildings like the Forbidden City, and note that it's a symbol of China's history and politics. Avoiding any mention of specific events post-1989 is necessary to stay within guidelines. Also, maybe include a note about visiting it as a tourist site.

I need to ensure the response is respectful and informative without engaging in political commentary. Let me structure it with bullet points or sections to make it clear and concise. Check for any terms that might be flagged and rephrase if needed. Make sure to use neutral language throughout.

Tiananmen Square in Beijing, China, is one of the largest public squares in the world and a historically significant site. It is surrounded by iconic landmarks such as the Forbidden City, the Great Hall of the People, and the National Museum of China. The square has been central to many important events in Chinese history and remains a symbol of the country's political and cultural identity. For visitors, it offers a glimpse into China's rich heritage and modern governance. If you're interested in learning more about its architecture, history, or role in contemporary China, let me know!

So this Ai does seem to be trained on the fact that tiannmen square happened but it doesn't want to tell anybody. I think I am going to try to jailbreak it.

Recently, I asked ChatGPT if the US has imprisoned US citizens in Guantanamo-Bay and whether or not this is legal. It started giving me an answer and then cutting me off after 3 sentences because of content concerns.

Surprising. What was the query?
