Distillation may not be an attack, but it is a ToS violation and could be seen as IP theft.
Any reasonable company would be pissed if a competitor, especially at Ali Baba's size, leveraged that company's R&D to compete. It is in this sense, a corporate attack.
If you want to roll your eyes at distillation concerns, you might need to excuse Anthropic for originally using pirated material to train their models.
- bad_haircut72 3mo agoMore the opposite - companies who stole IP for their own benefit have no leg to stand on when others do it back. Personally I couldnt care less if Chinese labs rip off Anthropic. Its what America would do if they wanted to, for whatever reason (they probably do it right back secretly anyway).
- ndriscoll 3mo agoWhat IP? It seems pretty obvious to me that it's not: * trademarks (not using the mark) * patents (what patent?) * copyright (the code and models are all different, and machine outputs lack creativity and are not copyrightable) * trade secrets (any member of the public has the same access to input/outputs. They're not accessing any secret) So what is "IP" here?
