Anthropic says it has uncovered large-scale model distillation attacks by Chinese AI labs DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax targeting Claude. In distillation, a weaker model is trained on the outputs of a stronger one. According to Anthropic, more than 24,000 fake accounts generated over 16 million requests, focusing on Claude’s strengths such as reasoning, coding, and tool use. The company also alleges that the labs used proxy services to bypass China-related access restrictions.
