    Meanwhile Chinese companies just use massive government subsidy to distill American models and give the models to everyone for free. That's true communism. /s

      Pretty sure you can check where Chinese government subsidies goes, and AI companies are not the target. Are they benefitting from Chinese government subsidies to powerplants and semiconductors? Yes, of course, but they don't benefit from direct help.

      Yeah totally unlike the US where tech companies are awarded multi-billion dollar contracts of taxpayer money in no-bid contracts without oversight

      And where the Vice President has almost exclusively only been employed for the primary investor in several such companies

      Meanwhile US models just use massive investor subsidy to distill American copyrighted work and rent the models to everyone for money. That's true capitalism. /!s
