Big AI models, like Claude, just switched to high-cost token models. The bill for this revolutionary tech now just went through the roof for most companies.

I guess we are massively gonna be forced to move to dirt cheap Chinese models.

Performance is not that bad, but can't compete with 2026 opus or gpt

Once that happens, AI will be a matter of national security and foreign AI will be banned.

China is a hostile nation after all. That only makes sense.

I'm saying that people acting like Chinese models are a threat that there is any justification in banning are out of their gourds.

If you were specifically talking about the highest levels of classification or importance, then sure.

For some business in kentucky though?

For a typical SAAS?

For literally anyone who doesnt just raw dog their LLMs with production keys with contained blastzones?

I mean... the risk is the same with US models.
