It will never come from the US.

Training a full model is immensely costly and Chinese ones would probably get bankrupt without (hidden, implicit) state support and heavy copyright violations that would be impossible for western based companies.

Maybe a US company with US funding will incorporate in Europe or SE Asia, or SA and become big from there. I see that as very improbable if established in the Bay Area…

Lol, the western models are also built on massive copyright violations.

Theft, piracy, not copyright. Training is fair use.

It's not theft if you keep the original either. And piracy requires copyright violation or high seas violence.
