Interesting detail from Ben Thompson's piece on Chinese models - https://stratechery.com/2026/whos-afraid-of-chinese-models/ - apparently Xi Jinping gave this speech recently http://english.scio.gov.cn/topnews/2026-07/18/content_118605... which included support for open source models:
> We should seize this rare, historic opportunity to encourage open source, openness, collaboration and sharing.
