Tech Giants Beg US Not to Lockdown AI Because Moonshot’s Kimi K3 Exists
KEY POINTS
- •On July 24, 2026, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang posted on X supporting open-weight AI models along with Microsoft, Meta, OpenAI, and Mistral.
- •Their letter warns US policymakers against strict regulation to protect US innovation from being stalled by restricting open AI models, especially amid concerns over China's Moonshot AI and its Kimi K3 model.
- •While some top AI players like Anthropic and Google initially stayed silent, OpenAI later signed the letter, with Elon Musk publicly backing Jensen Huang’s stance.
On July 24, 2026, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang made his debut on X by rallying a tech Avengers team—Microsoft, Meta, OpenAI, and Mistral—to defend 'open-weight AI' like it’s the digital version of sliced bread. They fear US policymakers might block Chinese Moonshot AI’s Kimi K3, the world’s power-hungry open-source AI that moonwalks circles around Nvidia’s shy Nemotron. Irony alert: OpenAI initially ghosted the letter but was added like uninvited plus-one at Friday night’s digital barbecue. Meanwhile, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called AI distillation 'theft,' accusing China of remixing Anthropic’s Fable 5 as if Spotify licenses didn’t exist. Elon Musk dropped his seal of approval with 'Jensen is right,' further stoking this AI soap opera. Thirty-two companies signed the magnum opus, defending open models as the crayon box of innovation—just don’t pinch the markers, please.

(1 of 3)Tech titans begging Uncle Sam to play nice with AI because China’s Kimi K3 is basically that kid who copied your homework but got the best grade anyway.
Watching Nvidia, Meta, and OpenAI pretend they’re besties while silently praying the government doesn’t punish their copycats is the new Hollywood drama.
Open AI models are the tech equivalent of a group project where everyone pretends they did most of the work and watches Moonshot AI sneak off with the A+.
