Summary
Chinese researchers have developed an AI tool called ChatBIT using Meta’s Llama model, despite Meta’s restrictions on military use. The tool, designed for intelligence gathering and decision-making, outperforms other AI models and highlights China’s efforts to leverage open-source AI for military purposes. The Pentagon is monitoring competitors’ AI capabilities, while the U.S. government is finalizing rules to curb investment in AI sectors in China that could threaten national security.
The whole issue here is that Llama is explicitly not open source, as it is licensed with usage restrictions.
This makes all this just a license dispute and China has no incentive to care.Reuters - News Source Context (Click to view Full Report)
