I'm sure that's exactly what it is.

(They're for sure doing that, but to be clear this screenshot isn't real)

Western Business will continue to do this, until it's no longer profitable. All the people have to do is wake up, act accordingly.

👏

I assume it is fake, but basically these US companies spent billions making proprietary models to make money and the Chinese came along and made models that are just as/nearly as good, and made them open for anyone to use.

They are also charging less to use them. Third parties that provide AI access can run them on their own hardware without expensive licensing fees so again they are some of the cheapest models to run for their capabilities.

The US companies thought it was a race to the top. First one to hit AGI would get mega rich eliminating jobs across the globe. Turns out AGI isn't here yet, and it costs so much to run that no one is paying for it anyways.

The Chinese know this is a race to the bottom. The models will get better, and the hardware more capable, so focusing on compute capacity and keeping costs low is the important part.

If the Chinese keep up, or at least nearly keep up with a considerably lower cost, then the US AI companies can't make their money back (they aren't anywhere near profitable) and go broke.

translation: china is evil, give us more money to stop them.

Just ask a Chinese LLM

hackernews tends to be fairly up to date on the developments, just don't read the comments when there's any discussion involving China 🤣
