Anthropic Alleges Chinese AI Firms Engaged in Distillation Campaigns
U.S. AI firm Anthropic accuses Chinese companies DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax of coordinated “distillation attacks.” The firms allegedly used tens of thousands of fake accounts to extract proprietary information from Anthropic’s Claude model, aiming to quickly replicate its capabilities. This follows similar accusations against DeepSeek by OpenAI, raising national security concerns over potential misuse of advanced AI by authoritarian regimes.
