Do you know something? When Chinese copy AI they open source it but your American companies would never do that
It's more like a freeware computer program than open-source (or "open" weights or whatever language they attach to it). They won't show you the source for many reasons. One of the reasons here is that the source is Anthropic, which I find hilarious personally
Us strategy is to chase the latest frontier model and while they burn money to get to that economy solving model they just plant to get everybody hooked, so they can ramp up prices later and make mega profits. Chinese just see the AI as a productivity multiplier and expect the money to be made elsewhere, their models are open and their Ai companies work on a loss. US plan really expects that there is eventually A) no competition, and B) their shit can actually be so useful that soon nobody can live without them. Everything the Chinese do is just poison to US AI companies.
Robin Hoods of AI?
american ones like the EVS, WANTS TO gouge people thats why.
