Maybe we will in a year, but then we'll just complain about China copying protectionism and censorship from the USA.

If that's a comfortable position for you, all good.

We held the US in higher regards, that's all.

We are just disappointed. You have to actually live there :)

I don't think anyone is making the same mistake with China, as open weight models can't be Thanos'd away.

But open weighted models would be outdated in terms of capabilities and performance in few months. Also I can imagine Chinese companies only make less capable models open weighted in the future and any model capable than Mythos or even higher would be proprietary

Well you are not wrong, I would also add corrupted and cowardly politicians. We are in worse position than China, and under full control of daddy USA, no matter what they say. If US would pull switch, it would be catastrophe for the EU.

Even the premier EU companies such as ASML are heavily reliant on US supply chain.

But why can't we be bitter?

reply
You can't be bitter because Europe squandered technological and capital market parity with the US in just 20 years.
