Not much different that using ChatGPT/any commercial LLM. They are not really profitable. They want to capture the market.

- MarkusQ 1y agoPrivate companies spending (and potentially wasting) money investors voluntarily gave them because they think it may lead to a big payoff down the road is capitalism. Companies doing the "same thing" with government handouts (where the ultimate source of the money had no say in the matter) is not. It's like the difference between companies that hire workers and those that use slave labor. They may have otherwise identical business models, but the later are operating at an unfair advantage.
- nicce 1y agoI don't really see difference. If we would know the true motivation of the government, then we could make a difference, but until we don't know it exactly, then there really isn't. It is entirely possible that that government is giving money against shares or future profits. It gets problematic and different if, for example, let's say the motivation is to use it as political leverage or even installing backdoors and collect user data.
