🚨 Why It Matters:
China is no longer relying on one breakthrough company. Alibaba, DeepSeek, MiniMax, ByteDance, and Moonshot are releasing capable models across text, coding, agents, and video while cutting prices and opening more technology to developers. The threat to OpenAI is now an entire AI ecosystem moving at once.
