And the fact they used a Chinese model, because none of the frontier models from very highly valuated top US companies support their very common and essential use case.

There’s an article from yesterday I think it was stratchery where they say it’s also because the Chinese open source models are better because they don’t have to play by the no-distilling rules that the western models have to honour.
That's been a common claim, but I don't think I've seen anyone provide actual evidence.
Haven’t read it yet but here it is:

And no similar sized big model is even public, which is super important to note.
I also thought this was hilarious. The very "safety" measures these models have prevented them from doing... Something that is designed to increase safety?
