China tightens export controls on open-weight models and 23 key AI technologies

China plans to restrict exports of 23 key AI technologies, including model weights, source code, and training methods for systems exceeding 10^26 FLOPs or 2 trillion parameters, according to The Decoder. A fast-track rule will still clear open-source releases as soon as they are registered, but the move will likely push Western companies to double down on US open-weight models over Chinese alternatives.
