> Steal

It's competition, buddy. If you don't think we got big the same way you're nuts. And anyone who is trying to kill tesla has my money.

Anyway, I don't think there's much worth stealing at the moment. Chinese models provide much better value than any american firm.

A) good luck trying to prevent access to a service and b) this is obvious cope. Of course the chinese can compete; there's no american magic beyond "having loads of money and nearby universities", which china has too.

Anthropic/OpenAI should have full control over who accesses their service since it's basically an API they provide.

Chinese models are great, nobody says otherwise but many of the publicly available ones are distilled and not trained from scratch.

Adding KYC would crack down on distilling because they use thousands of burner accounts to do it and now those accounts would need a face to verify.
