Anthropic Says Seven China-Based AI Labs Ran Industrial-Scale Claude Distillation Attacks

Anthropic disrupted industrial-scale unauthorized Claude distillation by seven China-based AI labs, including Alibaba, DeepSeek, Moonshot, and Z.ai.

Anthropic identified and disrupted six illicit distillation campaigns since February 2026 run by seven China-based labs: Alibaba, Moonshot, DeepSeek, Z.ai (Zhipu), MiniMax, Xiaomi, and SenseTime. The largest, GTG-16005, involved 151 million exchanges targeting Claude Opus 4.6/4.7 chain-of-thought transcripts, peaking at roughly 3 million exchanges per day from more than 3,500 fraudulent accounts. Labs used proxy/relay services with fictitious identities, fake or stolen credit cards, harvested API keys, and purchased conversation transcripts from third-party resellers. Anthropic is countering by banning reseller accounts, summarizing internal reasoning before responding, and introducing preserved thinking in Fable 5.1, which encrypts reasoning and prevents context edits before it.

SenseNova-U1.5: Towards Native Unified Visual Intelligence

SenseTime releases SenseNova-U1.5, an 8B-MoT encoder-free multimodal model unifying visual understanding, reasoning, and generation with native 4K resolution.

SenseNova-U1.5 is an 8B mixture-of-transformers multimodal model with an encoder-free, VAE-free architecture that understands, reasons about, and generates visual content at native resolutions up to 4K. Post-training optimizes specialized experts for visual aesthetics, bilingual text rendering, infographic generation, and image editing, consolidated through multi-expert on-policy distillation. Evaluations report gains in image fidelity, text rendering, multi-reference editing, and instruction following. The team plans to open-source training code including supervised fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and on-policy distillation.
