Here is what I think it the game is: 1. Force KYC is US LLM providers, gleefully supported by the US LLM providers. 2. Next -> now Chinese LLM providers must use KYC in the "free market" Western world. 3. But we can's allow KYC information to go to China, can we? 4. Now Western customers can not access Chinese LLM 5. Prices go up 10x to $2,000+/month. Anthropic/OpenAI are happy.

this is ridiculous.

there are tons of US providers supports Chinese models. Chinese labs give them weights, they don't give back user info in return.

OpenAI has notoriously terrible engineering. Look no further than the numerous Reddit threads and YouTube videos about people trying to give them money for their services and being denied. Users routinely have to try a number of credit cards, a number of web browsers, a number of devices, and a number of physical locations.

That’s totally unrelated. The post I was replying to claimed that if you create a new account with OpenAI and that gets detected, your whole account gets silently “nerfed”. That is not in any way related to Fable (visibly) being switched to a less strong model if you’re trying to discuss certain topics.

It demonstrates that: 1. Anthropic certainly has the ability. 2. They’re willing to use it silently.

And this thread is about OpenAI.
