Kimi - First Reactions

A new AI model from China is making waves, and it's a drop-in replacement for GPT-4 at a fraction of the cost. Moonshot's Kimi model is blazing fast, writes code as well as Claude Sonnet, and offers massive cost savings. But here's the big question: Should your business actually use AI technology from China?

The AI, Actually gang breaks down the real capabilities of Kimi, the truth about what AI models actually are under the hood, and why controlling your own AI weights might be the most important business decision you'll make in 2025. You'll discover why major companies are losing control over their AI systems and how to take it back.

In this video, you'll learn:
✅ Why Kimi is being called a "drop-in replacement" for expensive Western AI models
✅ The shocking reality: AI models are just spreadsheets (and why that changes everything)
✅ How to run Chinese AI models locally without sending data to foreign servers
✅ Why OpenAI's forced upgrades are breaking businesses overnight
✅ The critical difference between API access and owning your AI weights
