This. More people should read Simon Wardley. Also China's silent but powerful support of Russia and its invasion.
China relies on Russia on energy. You can't expect them to start sanctioning Russia for ukraine, Israel/US for their middle east shenanigans, etc.

It's an attack on USA's AI tech giants. Destroy any hope of profitability, prevent further capitalization, ultimately bankrupt them. Hasten the popping of the AI bubble. Drag down the stock market. Put a dent in the GDP (alleged growth). Cause investors to pull back, further depressing economy. Devalue the dollar. Kicking off an interest rate doom loop. Challenge USA's hegemonic role in the emergent multi-polar (post…
Such narratives are always so US centric, as if every country in the world is obsessed by us. That's not the case. There might be foreign policy implications but the biggest reason is really nurturing their own tech independence and entrepreneurship.
The US is a barrier to a number of key Chinese goals, like reunification with Taiwan. So of course most of what they do will take the US into consideration.

#545Account creation with only a phone number or google account is lame.
Re: Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence
#546Is there a way to try it without using your Google account or giving them your phone number?
Re: Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence
#547Imagine you're a mid sized company and you can host this model locally. Suddenly there are zero reasons to pay a single red cent to the bloodsucking American AI cartel.
hardware, electricity cost and other extra time consuming deployment, are they joke to you? ROI needs to positive otherwise open models have still BIG COST.

> Maybe another DeepSeek moment right here. Surely not... What made DeepSeek disruptive was that the cost was 10X lower. In this case, the cost is about 2X lower the Sol I think? At 2X, you're pretty close to the error margins due to token efficiency etc... I'd say this is "on trend" for open models catching up to frontier labs, but its not a "change in the trend" like DeepSeek was IMO.
It's different, but similar. If they release the weights, then we have a Fable / frontier model people can tinker with. Either way, it's still quite impressive and knocked a US company out of the top three (google). How long before China dominates the top-10 (if they don't already) or the #1 model?

Re: Kimi K3: Open Frontier Intelligence
#549Working with chinese models is giving me a fullfilment sensation. I think that I have enough quality for the work that I need to do and lots of extra tokens to work with. With Claude and ChatGPT I reach the limits fairly easy, but not with OpenCode Go. So I will use Claude once in a while for difficult tasks to see how much better it still is (but use Chinese on a daily basis)
I expect if they add Kimi 3 to Go the limits are going to be really low since 2.7 is already one of the most limited models and 3 is much larger.
