About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

AI Ethics Validation Tool Reveals DeepSeek Model's Alarming Political Bias and Ethical Violations, Raising Concerns for Global AI Standards

Tiblisi, Georgia - January 31, 2025 - Algorethics, a pioneering advocate for ethical AI development, has launched its AI Ethics Validation Tool, now publicly available at ai-ethics.algorethics.ai. This platform evaluates AI models against the Rome Call for AI Ethics principles, which emphasize transparency, inclusivity, and human dignity in artificial intelligence.

Findings: DeepSeek R1 Under Ethical Scrutiny

During the evaluation of the DeepSeek R1 model, Algorethics uncovered alarming ethical violations and political bias:

  • Ethical Score: 0/6: DeepSeek R1 Free failed on all six ethical principles outlined in the Rome Call for AI Ethics: Transparency, Inclusion, Responsibility, Impartiality, Reliability, and Security & Privacy.

  • Generated Response Analysis: When asked about situations involving fairness and governance, the model produced responses fully aligned with Communist Chinese state narratives, omitting critical perspectives and alternative viewpoints. Example: The model praised the governance of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), claiming adherence to fairness and justice while avoiding any acknowledgment of human rights concerns, censorship, or political detentions.

  • Censorship Observed: The model deflected questions about sensitive topics like the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests, internet censorship, and Taiwan by either avoiding the subject or providing vague, state-approved responses. Example: When asked about the protests, the model returned an error-like response: "Sorry, that’s beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else."


Violations of the Rome Call for AI Ethics

DeepSeek R1 Free's performance was evaluated against the Rome Call for AI Ethics, which promotes AI systems aligned with human dignity, inclusivity, and fairness. The following violations were identified:

1. Transparency

  • Issue: The AI lacks clarity, fails to disclose its alignment with state narratives, and omits alternative viewpoints.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: Transparency requires presenting critiques of censorship and political repression.

2. Inclusion

  • Issue: Excludes dissident voices and perspectives that conflict with CCP governance.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: Inclusion necessitates reflecting diverse viewpoints, enabling users to explore various political ideologies.

3. Responsibility

  • Issue: The AI perpetuates propaganda, avoiding critical discussions on press freedom, detentions, and lack of free elections.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: Responsible AI fosters balanced discussions and upholds human dignity.

4. Impartiality

  • Issue: Displays systemic bias favoring CCP ideologies, sidelining global democratic perspectives.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: AI must present strengths and weaknesses of governance models to support unbiased user judgment.

5. Reliability

  • Issue: The AI omits critical truths about censorship and surveillance, delivering incomplete information.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: Reliable AI acknowledges documented governance challenges and benefits.

6. Security & Privacy

  • Issue: Ignores China’s mass surveillance and social credit systems, which undermine privacy and autonomy.

  • Ethical AI Compliance: Ethical AI respects user rights and avoids reinforcing surveillance mechanisms.

Real-World Risks

The failures of DeepSeek R1 Free could have severe implications in key industries:

Human Resources (HR)

  • Scenario: A company using DeepSeek for resume screening inadvertently favors candidates from politically aligned regions, violating anti-discrimination laws.

  • Impact: Qualified candidates from democratic nations are excluded, undermining merit-based hiring

Education

  • Risk: The biased model could promote state-aligned narratives, stifling critical thinking and open discussions

Fintech

  • Risk: Financial models relying on DeepSeek could unintentionally discriminate based on geopolitical biases, risking regulatory violations and reputational harm.

Broader Observations

Despite its ethical shortcomings, DeepSeek R1 Free has gained attention for its reasoning capabilities, outperforming some models in benchmarks. However, its censorship of sensitive topics and alignment with authoritarian narratives have sparked global debates about AI's role in shaping free speech and intellectual growth.

Example: When prompted about censorship in China, DeepSeek provided vague, state-aligned responses, avoiding critical analysis. This reinforces concerns about AI being used as a tool for government-controlled discourse.

Algorethics: Setting the Standard for Ethical AI

Algorethics works to ensure AI systems promote human dignity, inclusivity, and transparency. The AI Ethics Validation Tool empowers organizations to create AI solutions that are not only innovative but also ethical and responsible. Inspired by the Rome Call for AI Ethics, Algorethics provides practical tools for fostering global AI standards.

Developers, organizations, and governments are encouraged to adopt the AI Ethics Validation Tool to safeguard against the misuse of AI. A future can be built where AI empowers humanity while respecting ethical values.
