It's funny that you think they can't just raise the prices at will. (And by funny i mean really sad)

Do you think it’s a monopoly? Is it not a competitive market? I see many strong Western competitors along with an expanding array of high quality open source options out of China.

But the open source options out of china are forbidden because being spied by china is evil while being spied by USA is good… usual free market lovers dropping it whenever.

Forbidden by who? I can select Kimi as my model in Cursor right now at my American company. What are you even talking about

Err so the American DoD — generally always concerned about supply chain considerations — prefers American models? And that’s surprising or problematic to you?

This is a weird conversation. At first you were concerned about prices and now you’re railing about the US Navy not using Chinese models. What’s your problem here?
