Nope, they want to force the rest of world to use their closed models ... no rando can inference a 3T model, only big inference providers. US can force them to remove Chinese open weights by way of sanctions and Nvidia chokehold etcImmediate problem I see with this idea is, unless they plan on blocking all international connections, any rando anywhere in the world can use open models to launch attacks so blocking open models for US users will only prevent them from defending themselves, as demonstrated when HG had switch to GLM.
Same playbook they deployed against Huawei back in 2019 when fat Pompous was going around accusing Chinese 5g gear as having backdoors and preaching to the world about "clean and secure" Western networks for democracy and freedom
