Is kimi making a profit? How subsidized is it by the Chinese government?
- bdcravens 2mo agoIs that any worse than being subsidized by VC? They're playing the same game as the western labs, just with slightly different players.
- malshe 2mo agoChinese government vs American VCs doesn't equate to "slight different players."
- vrganj 2mo agoTrue. The Chinese Communist Party's motto is "Serve the People". [0] They might not always live up to that, but at least the aspiration is there. No such pretense from American VCs. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serve_the_People https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serve_the_People
- jshen 2mo agoThis is the most naive comment I've read in a long time.
- BAM-DevCrew 2mo agoAmerican VCs and American Government mingle at the deepest levels. Yes, slightly different is correct.
- jshen 2mo agoThis isn't true unless you're limiting your reference point to Trump's second term.
