U.S. weighs curbs on Chinese open-source AI models after debut of free Kimi

The Trump administration is considering ways to limit U.S. companies\' use of Chinese open-source AI models, a report said, as cheaper Chinese systems gain performance and price competitiveness. The debut of Moonshot AI\'s Kimi K3 has been cited as a trigger. Options discussed include restricting access, revisiting Commerce Department entity list designations and applying procurement rules. Debate has also grown over whether such steps could favor large U.S. AI firms.
