China is good at compressing the existing models by stealing the answers they give you to make models that have equivalent performance that are way cheaper (plagiarism)

Lol plagerism is when they take your shitty product and actually make it better apparently. Begs the question why China manages to succeed at this when Western companies that own the original product can't. You'd think they'd always be one step ahead of those damn plagerising Chinese scum or at least would be able to do the exact same thing China does.

Also if you're calling plagerism on this I'm calling plagerism on all of AI. You can't accept any generative AI while simultaneously pearl clutching when someone else plagerises your country's AI. So pick one. Either we ban all AI for plagerising all of humanity or we don't give a shit when one AI company plagerises another.

I didn't really intend "plagiarism" to convey my opinion (which is that the AI companies can get fucked), but more as a neutral term to mean Chinese companies are copying to make cheaper models, as asserted by the video

Fair enough, I apologise for jumping to conclusions then.
