I assume it has something to do with being on a website called "Hacker News" and said models are, for the most part, the only ones being published as open weights.
And you don't think it is weird that the chinese models are the only ones embracing free markets, and open concepts, while the so called 'free' market on this side of the world tries to close everyone off from the technology that is so essential for the future?
Open is better than closed, simple as. Nothing to do with China versus America, I'll always stan the open models and cast my aspersions on the closed ones.
>The circle jerking of Chinese models on this site never ceases to amuse me.
As opposed to "ask the model about Tiananmen" which seems to be the site's favorite pastime about Chinese models. ;)

Sarcasm aside, I don't think people are happy about _Chinese_ models making advances. They are happy about _open_ models making advances. It's just coincidental that China is the one making them.
If some American lab were to develop a SOTA open model most people here will be equally excited. Although besides GPT-OSS-120B the American labs have been disappointing in this regard.
