@jaichind
In other words this is OpenAI and Claude saying to USA government "please ban the free version of our product"
@monis9198

@Dbjr98
Ban these rage baiting bots first lmao
@ChrisitianW
The sophisticated Americans deserve AI services that cost three times more.
@hanahusky
how come US cars are allowed to sell in China, and Microsoft and oracle are allow to sell services in China, while tiktok is banned and BYD is banned, now Moonshot Kimi is banned?
@xswienxp
If ban, it'll benefit the European, Japanese and Korean especially. Aside American, everyone will get competitive AI service pricing. Eventually then China will dominate the AI world.
@opad3260
Meanwhile, China is actually banning predatory groomer chatbots, but Trump wouldn't want to ban those because he relates to them too much 🤣
@EKisPEER
List of advanced tech that Americans won't have access to is growing. Soviet Union 2.0
@JamesKhoo-i5e
China has already surpassed US. You guys are still dreaming 😂
@billlau1142
It's capitalism and free markets only when it benefits the US. If not, ban them, sanctions, what a joke 😂
@thomasrogers9146
CHINA CLOSED LAST YEAR WITH A 1.2 TRILLION DOLLARS TRADE SURPLUS WITHOUT THE AMERICAN MARKET DESPITE TARIFFS AND TRADE WARS 2025..ITS BASIC MATH. THERE ARE 8 BILLION PEOPLE ON EARTH..WE AMERICANS ARE ONLY 4% OF THE GLOBAL POPULATION AT 336 MILLION PEOPLE . BANNING PLACING TARIFFS ON CHINESE IMPORTS AND COMPANIES IS USELESS AND STUPID. 40% OF THE GLOBAL POPULATION IS NOW USING CHINESE OPEN SOURCE AI MODEL. MOST AMERICANS ARE NOT AWARE THAT THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF AMERICAN COMPANIES OPERATING IN CHINA GROSSING OVER 1 TRILLION DOLLARS IN REVENUE ANUALLY. WE ARE LUCKY THE CHINESE PEOPLE ARE NOT MEAN RACIST AND DUMB TO BAN OUR COMPANIES FROM THEIR MARKET BECAUSE THERE IS NO REPLACEMENT FOR THE CHINESE MARKET GLOBALLY. TARIFFS AND BANNING CHINESE AI FROM THE AMERICAN MARKET IS STUPID DUMB AND CRAZY.
