That is the last thing that will happen. We don't seem to ever learn a lesson.
An OCD dream but you need to embrace it and configure it or you would get "AI slop".
What will you do when Apple/Google or the US Government effective immediately delete/block your app? The impact initially may be small but after a few years if widely used, you can break a country.
Their inital image generation was a wrapper around Flux.

In Switzerland we have the concept of a "Genossenschaft"[1] which is a legal form for a company entered in the official company register like every other company for co-ops. You need to be at least 7 people to start one.
The largest two food super markets are both co-ops (Migros and Coop) and also the largest car sharing company Mobility is a co-op.

As a company I can not trust putting large sums of investment into using a product that may disappear the next day due to a government deciding at a whim that it should not longer be available. No contract can protect me from this and I doubt I would find an insurance that would cover this risk.
This forces me the build fallback solutions and diversify most likely resulting in not using the tech from the "high risk" provider.
Building a product on top of something like this is actually worse than building a product on top of Meta like Zynga did.
There are no Chinese military personnel and bases in Europe. The Chinese have not tried to take European land by force and China is also quite stable. It won't change it's mind every 4 years and negate international treaties that have been signed. I also don't recall China invading another country and/or kidnapping leaders of a foreign state in recent history. China also does not control the global reserve currency and can not unilaterally impose debilitating sanction on countries such as Cuba causing the death of thousands of innocent people because of some historical beef.
Yes, China does not have a good human rights record, they imprison a lot of political dissidence but then who are we comparing them too? The US has a 5x worse per capita prison population than China and a horrific human rights record.
What exactly bothers you so much about China that the US does not?
The financial growth based on that everyone on earth will need to have an OpenAI or Anthropic subscription is quickly falling apart.
DeepSeek V4 is good enough for most of my work that that I can no longer justify paying 100x for something else. The cost difference is astronomical.
After Gaza I will need verified by third party evidence of this.
Also what business does Israel have to complain about another states tunnels and weapons? I don't agree with Israel having nuclear weapons, it doesn't give me the right to decide on my own to go into Israel and try to take them away.
