If the western AI companies are forced to comply with this type of BS, and develop their models to do their job while balancing a book on their head and hopping on one foot, the Chinese models just got a free pass to completely dominate the frontier.

What's the problem, really? Given the direction the U.S. has been heading in recent years, I wonder what really sets it apart from China. Europe needs to maintain an equal distance from both the U.S. and China.

If the Chinese want to sell to EU customers, they probably have to do the same.
