Just bribe someone for access, it's still cheaper than training your own model from scratch. They stole the entire accumulated output of humanity and fed it to their beast, no one should feel any moral or ethical compunction about taking from the AI firms.

Welcome to the age of digital realpolitik.

Same problem, different scope. The EU doesn’t have a proper intelligence agencies, it has members who each run their own. The chances that any of them can achieve the scale of China’s spies is silly.

How you make ROI when your model is blocked?
