The Chinese labs are just making fun of the US labs at this point.

Where is the cool shit from the US labs?

With other software, devs convince their managers of the importance of using open source stuff in their stack. With AI, it's usually managers choosing what models to use for the devs. The US labs don't need to give a damn how much devs like open source

  • This isn't about liking open source. This is about the labs just being cool and doing cool shit instead of the opposite which is Anthropic where all they talking about is killing everyone and taking everyone's job.

    • These labs are still (for the time being) made of people, who reflect their lives onto the work.

      The US population is much more pessimistic and doomsday driven these days, whereas the Chinese are more optimistic and future driven.

    In the short term, true.

    In the long term, unknown but typically when you hold progress that way while other countries don't you at best end up becoming siloed while the rest of the world continues on without you.

You mean all of the frontier models that the Chinese distillation clones are copying? Yeah kinda cool imo. If a dashboard showing training for a model that doesn't even come close to anything us labs have released in 6 months is "cool", then you're a loser

  • Why the fuck would you or I care about that?

    Anthropic and OpenAI literally stole from every human in history and youre out here complaining that the Chinese are distilling models and releasing them to the public?

    Why do you care?

    • Because without those labs to distill from the pathetic Chinese labs wouldn't have anything. Im not impressed by them copying US labs not sure why you are. But go off ccp bot
