Not sure if it is competitive but DeepSeek's models are under the mit license, including their most recent one.

Are they? https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3/blob/main/LICENSE...
This is ancient (2 years ago), all their recent stuff (e.g. [0][1]) are MIT licensed. The only exception i've found from a quick browse of their stuff is [2], which is Apache 2 licensed. Even the update to V3 (which you linked at), V3.2, was MIT licensed.

Unfortunately all the license links there give 404 errors, but if you look in the file tree the licenses are there as described.
Interesting, I heard PRC doesn't allow this anymore but apparently the law is only partially in effect so maybe they get away with it (https://sanctionsnews.bakermckenzie.com/china-proposes-expan...)
