Big day for open source Chinese model releases - DeepSeek-v3-0324 came out today too, an updated version of DeepSeek v3 now under an MIT license (previously it was a custom DeepSeek license). https://simonwillison.net/2025/Mar/24/deepseek/

it seems that this free version "may use your prompts and completions to train new models"

https://openrouter.ai/deepseek/deepseek-chat-v3-0324:free

do you think this needs attention?

That's typical of the free options on OpenRouter, if you don't want your inputs used for training you use the paid one: https://openrouter.ai/deepseek/deepseek-chat-v3-0324

Is OpenRouter planning on distilling models off the prompts and responses from frontier models? That's smart - a little gross - but smart.

COO of OpenRouter here. We are simply stating the WE can’t vouch for the behavior of the upstream provider’s retention and training policy. We don’t save your prompt data, regardless of the model you use, unless you explicitly opt-in to logging (in exchange for a 1% inference discount).

That 1% discount feels a bit cheap to me - if it was a 25% or 50% discount I would be much more likely to sign up for it.

We don’t particularly want our customers’ data :)

I'm glad to hear you are not hoovering up this data for your own purposes.

Yeah, but Openrouter has a 5% surcharge anyway.

Better way to state is 20% of surcharge then :)

You clearly want it a little if you give a discount for it?
