>open models is what will kill Anthropic and OpenAI
i doubt it. it cost money to train a model. we can see that with the price increase for Kimi3. Chinese AI companies is leaving a lot of money on the table for third party providers. you think they going to let go of those money that they can make. sooner or later they will want to collect. after all, none of Chinese open weight model is release by a none profit. its all for-profit companies that is releasing open weight model.
I can't take anybody seriously when they keep declaring open models is beating frontier models. What they don't understand is that besides the huge capex to train and run inference, the real gold is in the human response to the prompt results, this is what all the Chinese companies are making their open models dirt cheap and distilling american frontier models via scraping.
The idea that we can out-parameterize frontier models is a common misconception, the true moat that Anthropic and OpenAI is why Chinese model providers are open sourcing and making it dirt cheap to keep pace through its "proxy chain operators"
