Some American companies are adopting large Chinese models to reduce costs.

From AlphaGo's dominance in the Go community to the emergence of ChatGPT, the United States has gained a significant first-mover advantage in the field of algorithmic large models. However, in recent years, the rise of Chinese large models has shaken up the AI landscape. Various media outlets, including The Wall Street Journal, have reported that the Chinese large model unicorn "Moon's Dark Side" and its new generation open-source large model Kimi K3 have disrupted the capital market, with market panic similar to that caused by DeepSeek upon its 2025 release, and even Elon Musk praised it as "impressive." Some large American companies have begun to shift towards Chinese large models. According to the Associated Press, cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase stated that it is moving to use Chinese AI models to reduce costs. Airbnb has adopted Alibaba's Qwen model, praising it as "fast and cheap."
