China-US debate over AI: Open weight or open source?

Moonshot AI released the weights for Kimi K3 on Tuesday, with third-party evaluations showing its performance comparable to Claude Fable 5, at a fraction of cost. The rise of capable, low-cost Chinese AI models is fueling debate in both Washington and Big Tech circles. Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta and OpenAI – among 32 signatories – are urging US policymakers to support open-weight models and not conflate legitimate techniques like distillation with unlawful extraction.
