> I am referring to their new models having absurdly high prices. GPT-4.5 is $75/150 and o1 is $15/60, whereas GPT-4o is $2.5/10.
That is a new product not a price increase.
> The models are open source so one can run them locally.
Again, not sure how any policies will stop opensource code from being run. At any rate those models still don't compare to O1 Pro and the full tool suite.

There is already a bill in circulation that would ban the "import" of Chinese artificial intelligence technology and you can be sure that this means you won't be able to download the DeepSeek app or download its model:

The first part is clear, but my thesis is that no Western company would be downloading a DeepSeek app in the first place.
The second part is much more ambiguous, and unfortunately, the bill lacks specificity. I’d be surprised if it made it very far, and even more surprised if any of the hyperscalers supported it. It doesn’t do much to protect their moa because again, no one in the Western world is going to run a Chinese-hosted model anyway. And without clearer language, it could end up blocking the use of foreign research that could actually strengthen U.S. companies.

OpenAI wants to ban the use of DeepSeek models: "As with Huawei, there is significant risk in building on top of DeepSeek models in critical infrastructure and other high-risk use cases given the potential that DeepSeek could be compelled by the CCP to manipulate its models to cause harm." from: https://cdn.openai.com/global-affairs/ostp-rfi/ec680b75-d539...
