> it's just one more reason that Chinese models will not be legal in the US in the near future This isn't about the model, it's about the mobile app. The open source model weights are different from the website and the app. The model cannot track you. Not just Congress, even techies can be confused about these things.

Yes, exactly, what the guy above was saying is that they're just looking for excuses to keep people from using the Chinese thing.

  Protectionism can be dumb, if competition from china is decimation the US LLM market, making the cheaper better competitors illegal sounds like sound advice to someone like trump, probably?

    Or Obama. See: Wolf Amendment. [1] Following typical tropes about China, "we" decided to ban space cooperation with them because they were just going to steal American space tech or whatever. That's why, to this day, you never see Chinese on the ISS. Of course China then became the 2nd largest player in space, behind only SpaceX, launched and manned their own space station, sent a rover to Mars, carried out unprecedented sample return missions from the dark side of the Moon, and just generally ran circles around the US sans SpaceX. If it wasn't for this dumb law, it's likely NASA would have been able to use Russia, China, and SpaceX as redundancies for getting Americans to the ISS as one country/company fell out of favor with this administration or that. As was we ended up turning to Boeing for a redundancy. For those that don't follow space news, the 2 astronauts Boeing [barely] sent to the ISS are still stranded up there after their vessel was deemed too dangerous to return in. I oft wondered what it would have been like to live in Rome circa 460. [1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_Amendment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolf_Amendment

    All the major US tech firms are extremely competition averse. They are all cozying up to Trump so they can maintain their cartels.
