     Yup. OpenAI developers are already calling the better alternative Chinese spyware, despite being open source meaning you can run it locally (unlike ChatGPT). It's only a matter of time until the U.S.' foreign policy will act in the interest of the U.S. economy through a trade war.

     The NSA is currently summoning 5 unnamed national security experts to assure us that the Chinese AI company uses spyware and OpenAI would never do that

     I still think AI sucks and I'm not gonna use it, but it's objectively a good thing that these Silicon Valley demons get wiped out by an open-source and more energy efficient alternative.

     I'm sure all these investors are supper happy about the efficiency of free market capitalism and the innovation from this company they didn't invest in

     @ErikUden
     Please don't devalue terms like “FOSS” and “open source” by redefining them to mean “you can download and run it locally”. FOSS advocates spent considerable amounts of time explaining that these terms emphatically do *not* mean that, and looking for ways to avoid confusion.

     There is a perfectly good word for software which can be downloaded and run for free: “freeware”.

     Those are freeware models.
