If China stays open, then the rest of the world will build on open. I'm frankly shocked that a domestic player isn't doing this.
Fine tuning will work for niche business use cases better than promises of AGI.

I was listening to a Taiwanese news channel earlier today and although I wasn't paying much attention, I remember hearing about how Chinese AIs are biased towards Chinese political ideas and that some programme to create a more Taiwanese-aligned AI was being put in place.
I wouldn't be surprised if just for this reason, at least a few different open models kept being released, because even if they don't directly bring in money, several actors care more about spreading or defending their ideas and IAs are perfect for that.
One theory is that they believe the real endpoint value will be embodied AIs (i.e. robots), where they think they'll hold a long-term competitive advantage. The models themselves will become commoditized, under the pressure of the open-source models.
