US data company sold about $500 million data to Chinese AI labs, including reinforcement learning environments to help improve model performance in fields such as coding, networking, finance, law, and biology. These environments simulate the world to allow models to train repeatedly and use scoring standards to optimize output. Chinese labs can save over 70% of inference computing costs annually by purchasing the same RL environments as US companies like Anthropic and OpenAI.
