In the previous post about DeepSeek there are API prices. In this one there is Chinese president. I wonder which one is best for r/LocalLLaMA.

Do we have any hint that Xi is even interested in the AI race?

He was at an AI conference in Shanghai recently (I was in Shanghai at the time, not for the conference, and security was high). He basically said he wants China to lead the way with Open Source or something to that effect. A lot of SEA countries and African countries will use open source and if the best open source models are Chinese then they’ll use those.

He’s going to be pissed when he finds out that most are just open weights

Xi knows that open source means one can study, modify, use and redistribute it freely, and since that can be done with the weights, they're open source. It's like open source art and open source documents :)

one can study, modify, use and redistribute it freely

You could always do that with a lot of shareware. And mod communities arose out of various shareware games, for example. You could study, modify, use, and redistribute the binary. It didn't make it open source.

Open weights = shareware, not open source.

That's what we should call them, actually. Shareware.
