I am still seething.
It is retarded and I stand by my statement.
"Open" AI went closed sourced. Before Deepseek appeared, people were locked into OpenAI just like they were locked in Microsoft and others that are also closed source. These users could have (and probably would have) switched to Deepseek without open sourcing or even providing a localizing ability because the costs would be so much lower.
It's totally stupid to give up a major tech advantage. Look at all these closed source giants.

Are they stupid? Of course not. They have an intellectual property moat.
The point is that Deepseek's cost advantage would have gotten adoption anyways. So, open sourcing was probably a dumb move.
The second point was the robotics open sourcing. That was ultra stupid. Let's take just ONE case. Look at India, who is currently is a wannabe imperialist. Luckily, they are useless and weak.
But thanks to China's Agibot sharing its secrets via opensource, Superpowa 2012 India has a vast army of robots to take care of agriculture, work in factories, build infrastructure, build homes, bottle cow urine elixirs, make weapons 24/7, invade and subjugate their neighbors, and position missiles aimed at Beijing. They don't even need "so many white slaves" anymore!
Whoops
Do you see how fucking stupid this is?
Do you think the Indians will be grateful towards China Of course not, chinki. That's their term, not mine.
Moreover, no other group has achieved as much in humanoid robotics as Chinese companies. That tells me that moat is probably very large, which means it was hard to overcome anyways. That means that China would be the default victor of the robot industry. What did China gain by open sourcing? Nothing. That's why it's so fucking insanely stupid.
