[I literally had this thought in the shower this morning so please don’t gatekeep me lol.]
If AI was something everyone wanted or needed, it wouldn’t be constantly shoved your face by every product. People would just use it.
Imagine if printers were new and every piece of software was like “Hey, I can put this on paper for you” every time you typed a word. That would be insane. Printing is a need, and when you need to print, you just print.
AI is the only chance for the West to beat China without a war. So the billionaires have gone all in because they will lose their fortunes if China wins.
Downvoters, how else are we going to win?
Why are you obsessed with throwing away our future to go to war with China?
Because it is not my decision to make. I assume that those in power will want to stay in power while China is taking over market after market.
There are not many options left for the billionaires to stay billionaires. Will they hand over power voluntarily?
China seems to be open sourcing it’s AI research. It’s US capitalism vs the world.
yeah,most chinese companies i see offer their entire model Openly (even the ones that the AI companies uses themselves)
example of this:
Deepseek (most famous of them all)
Alibaba cloud(Qwen)
It’s true with them just as it’s been true with the US companies. If the product is free, then you’re the product.
That’s the usual strategy of commodifying the strategic advantage of the opponent.
What will Europe get if China becomes the hegemon? That will decide if Europe will participate in the development of those models.
