Chinese artificial-intelligence systems have matched the performance
of Anthropic’s powerful model Mythos in some cybersecurity scenarios,
a development poised to reset the global tech race and pressure the
White House in its overhaul of U.S. AI policy.
Unlike models from Anthropic or OpenAI, Zhipu’s GLM-5.2 is
open-weight. That means it can be downloaded and run on hardware
operated by anybody and can be modified and used without supervision.
Open-weight models are ideal for users who want unfettered access to
systems they control, but they are also ideal for hackers, who can run
them in the shadows.
----------------------

After the US restricted access to the most powerful AI models, the
rest of the world noticed.
The risk that the US could switch off access to their AI models at any
time was a security risk that had to be resolved.
"Shooting yourself in the foot" springs to mind.
