Banning them would hand European startups a gift of low cost inference so I am 100% in support of this.
The globalists had no problem selling out our manufacturing to China, now they are crying because China can provide a cheaper service.
Anthropic and OpenAI have executed the greatest intellectual property heist in human history and they are angry because China stole from thieves and distillation isn't even technically legally defined yet. As much as I despise the CCP you better believe I'm using the cheapest models.

The globalists of old would happily hand AI dominance to China in exchange for a decade or two of short-term gains. The fact that protectionist measures are even being considered shows that the globalists who sold out manufacturing to China aren't at the wheel anymore.
They are. Selling out was done with the expectation that "the West" will outsource the basics, but will have hands freed to "reach singularity" and will keep the braids of all the technological chains. Now the "reaching singularity" itself is being lost, so everyone suddenly understands that there is nothing left.
