Nathan Lambert says US open-weight models were behind Chinese models dating to February 2026 until today. He says today's release cut that gap in time by at least half, to roughly three months.

Guys this is like my superbowl I waited so long for US open weight models to be relevant again. Before today the US models were still behind Chinese models from as early as Feb. 2026. Still more work to do!

This cut the gap by at least half, in time (say 3 months)
