## Resource

China is weaponizing open-weight AI with Kimi K3 — a 2.8 trillion parameter model from Moonshot AI — using the same pricing-war playbook that reshaped EVs. The real story isn't the benchmarks. It's the fight over who controls AI pricing power: Nvidia positioning to profit from every outcome, closed-model revenue math that collapses if cheap Chinese models keep coming. And Sam Altman is quietly using this exact geopolitical threat to force Washington into saving OpenAI's IPO while the rest of Big Tech scrambles to protect revenue.
