The issues with LLMs go beyond just IP theft. I would not say PRC making LLMs cheaper is the best outcome (though it is better than nothing). The best outcome would be to make the practice of training on our data without consent illegal, which would simultaneously slow down economic change and make it more organic as well as give PRC companies less capabilities to extract.

i still want those data sets to become public domain. open weights still isnt good enough

I hope you say the same when these cheap llms are used in drones to target humans. The world models are exactly built with that direction in mind.
