Currently, China has the best open source models in text, video and music generation.
I’m not even in to this shit and I’m going to download it right now because fuck those assholes.
These fucking clowns just refuse to learn about how technology works. Fucking morons.
The generation that can’t figure out their TV remote is attempting to legislate on cutting edge technology. Fucking series of tubes all over again. It never stopped though really.
This country is so cooked.
Always has been.
bang.
Bad chinaman used the free market to hurt american oligarchs so they got their regime whores in congress to restrict MY access to the good shit?!
Pathetic…
And frankly, it is the internet and model is open source. Get fucked daddy Sam.
What next? Outlaw chinese food?
ABSOLUTELY NO COMPETITION ALLOWED.
It is making gen Z lazy, they start to “lay flat”

Ah, the supporters of the free market strike again. No competition allowed, Sam Altman and his American billionaire peers are entitled to all the money.
Exhibit no. 47475 of their parasite behavior
Lol, protectionism for the administration’s fellators.
Josh Hawley is a complete waste.
LOL. Next they start burning books?
start?
PROHIBITIONS ON IMPORT AND EXPORT
They are just doing protectionism for Meta and OpenAI monopoly and shooting rest of the american economy in the foot by doing it. Anybody who isn’t openAI one of these tech giants will have to use less effective american gen-AIs, that they can’t self host for free for much less cost provided that they have servers. This Just to protect companies like openAI, that relied on the idea that people will have to come to them, so they can set the prize and still harvest their data and even insert all the right political narratives into the model, like what happened with chatgpt and palestine. All of this because few weeks ago good AI was supposed to super hard and scarce and now it isn’t.
Can they even enforce this is the question? Will ISP’s be forced to ban the deepseek site? Will they criminalize people self hosting deepseek on their home servers? Still that 180 days is just a call to download deepseek and modify it a little bit as it not to be chinese anymore and start hosting it as some alternative.
How would they even attempt to implement this? Will the US end up with a Great Firewall like China has? Even if Chinese models are delisted from Hugging Face (since Hugging Face is a US company and has to follow US law), they could just be hosted elsewhere.
Most likely, they’ll just enforce it against businesses using it since they’re the cash cow as far as OpenAI, meta et all are concerned
So rather than build off their successes we’re just gonna put up a blinder and hope they don’t completely leave us in the dust?
If I have seen further, it is by
standing on the shoulders of giantsblinding everyone else LOLYou’re expecting coherent policy from the guy that shut the entire country down for a day, because he’s an idiot?
so basically more cenaorship because china, is it gonna have a long lasting effect this time?
