🔥 Anthropic accuses Chinese companies of "siphoning" data from Claude, per WSJ.
The AI industry is seeing a major spike in tension as Anthropic officially accuses several Chinese tech firms of "siphoning" data from its Claude models to bolster their own technology.
According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, here are the core allegations: $COTI
Systemic Deception: Anthropic claims that DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax created over 24,000 fraudulent accounts to bypass standard usage limits. $ESP
Massive Data Harvesting: These accounts allegedly prompted Claude more than 16 million times, using the high-quality outputs to "distill" or train their competing AI models. $SENT
Industry-Wide Patterns: This isn't an isolated grievance; OpenAI has reportedly issued a memo to the U.S. House of Representatives leveling similar accusations against DeepSeek.
This escalation underscores the increasingly aggressive tactics being used in the global AI arms race.
