Made in China has always been about 70-90% quality but beats competitors with half the price. In the AI field, it’s clear the same approach can be used to beat Claude and OpenAI. Plus, in video generation, thanks to the advantage of data accumulation, domestic models are way ahead. Don’t think Claude is all that great. In 1-2 years, free open-source models could surpass the current Claude. Sure, the most advanced models are amazing, but free tools are good enough for most ordinary people. The thing is, too many people use GPT and Claude and look down on domestic models. I use them too, but honestly, the gap isn’t that big. You’re vibing with code every day, but the restaurant owner downstairs who doesn’t know a single line of code probably earns more than you. Even in the AI revolution, people still need to eat, dress, play a murder mystery game, or grab some BBQ. The world isn’t just 0s and 1s. And this isn’t Chengdu.
