That’s assuming China would not start controlling the access to their models.

Chinese companies can make a killing selling on prem AI systems to the rest of the world now.

Big boxes with Huawei GPUs and Chinese open models to run inside your company without network access.

They could, but I can imagine if US keeps on blocking the cutting edge models, China would never ship the cutting edge models and would still make a killing shipping models that are powerful enough for most of business cases

Serious question: why not?

Because China doesn't have the hardware to do this? Or the brains?

China has no reason to do that. The US is freely handing them the international market for AI.

Are they though? I see this as a precautious method by US to maintain AI model superiority so the Chinese companies cannot distill from the US frontier models. Let's see how fast Chinese models would improve without access to latest US models and if they keep on releasing open models

Chinese tech has been on an exponential growth trajectory. If they see the need for AI superiority then there's really no moat for AI companies.

US just needs their internationally usable model to be better than China's. If China catches up, US starts releasing more powerful models.

If US models cost 20x compared to China, they have to be at least 20x better.

Maybe, but the cheap models aren't the subject of the clamp-down here
