Everything else is made in China. China provoded tons of services that use our data. There's no reason to think AI will be different unless the government prohibits it. Companies will always eventually go with the lowest cost thing that does the job at an enterprise level.

Why are the telecom prohibitons necessary if corp wouldn't use them?

Because, like I said, they will use it unless it's prohibited.

Yeah it's significantly cheaper Open AI appears to be heavily subsidizing the cost. It's like twice as cheap for input tokens and 20-40% cheaper on output depending which gpt pricing tier you aare using. Also not just for tokens for the 100 dollar plan on codex vs claude you get way more usage. Claude depletes faster during peak hours too.

I don't have coding needs (until I try to make a video game). But I've used deepseek for a bunch of basic, non-legal shit, and it generally sucked

The only good point I can think of is that it wouldn't bullshit when it was caught not following the prompt or not pulling data. ChatGPT and most American models dig their heels in and seem to intentionally fuck up requests once they've been caught

An example is that I was using AI for some dividend screening help. Despite explicit instructions to conduct research by calculating yields based on the prior day's closing price, it would pull 3 and then make up the rest (about 7 in total). When called on it, it would admit to the problem of not pulling data. I would explicitly tell it to pull the data for all tickers to generate the yield data. It would regenerate the data but refuse to pull the actual data for multiple tickers each time.

After four rounds of this, it finally suggested starting all over with a clean prompt tomorrow

If the Chinese models can get better quality-wise, they will fucking eat these lazy American LLMs for lunch. But that day is not yet here
