Look at it in another way, people think this is the start of an actual AI revolution, as in full blown AGI or close to it or something very capable at least

I think the bigger threat of revolution (and counter-revolution) is that of open source software. For people that don't know anything about FOSS, they've been told for decades now that [XYZ] software is a tool you need and that's only possible through the innovative and superhuman-like intelligent CEOs helping us with the opportunity to buy it.

If everyone finds out that they're actually the ones stifling progress and development, while manipulating markets to further enrich themselves and whatever other partners that align with that goal, it might disrupt the golden goose model. Not to mention defrauding the countless investors that thought they were holding rocket ship money that was actually snake oil.

All while another country did that collectively and just said, "here, it's free. You can even take the code and use it how you personally see fit, because if this thing really is that thing, it should be a tool anyone can access. Oh, and all you other companies, your code is garbage btw. Ours runs on a potato by comparison."

I'm just saying, the US has already shown they will go to extreme lengths to keep its citizens from thinking too hard about how its economic model might actually be fucking them while the rich guys just move on to the next thing they'll sell us.

ETA: a smaller scale example: the development of Wine, and subsequently Proton finally gave PC gamers a choice to move away from Windows if they wanted to.
