China is good at compressing the existing models by stealing the answers they give you to make models that have equivalent performance that are way cheaper (plagiarism)
shares a bunch of clips of Ed Zitron repeating a lot of the things he said over the last six months about there not being a path to profitability for American AI companies
the bond market looks similar to how it did back before 2008
It’s worth noting that the whole China is distilling our glorious models narrative is largely nonsense. First of all, everybody distills, so it’s not like it’s unique to Chinese companies. Second, most of actual research that’s published is now coming out of China.
Making a new cheaper model involves nothing more than taking output from an openathropic model and feeding it into your own. Don’t worry about why only Chinese companies are able to do it.

Obviously people like Scam Altman are just too principled to stoop to the level of these savage Chinese companies.
