[U.S. Accuses Kimi K3 of Distilling Fable, Dark Side of the Moon May Face Sanctions] According to monitoring by Beating, Michael Kratsios, the U.S. White House Chief Technology Officer, has accused the Dark Side of the Moon of distilling Anthropic's Fable to train Kimi K3. Distillation refers to using the output of a strong model to train another model. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent subsequently stated that sanctions and inclusion on the entity list are under consideration. Kratsios claimed that the Dark Side of the Moon has built an internal platform capable of switching between multiple access channels to evade detection. He also alleged that the Dark Side of the Moon purchased servers equipped with NVIDIA GB300 chips and used these chips in Thailand. Kratsios did not provide public evidence. In February of this year, Anthropic accused the Dark Side of the Moon of interacting with Claude over 3.4 million times through hundreds of fake accounts, focusing on acquiring capabilities in agent reasoning, tool invocation, programming, and data analysis. At the time, the Dark Side of the Moon did not respond to media requests for comment. The Dark Side of the Moon has also not responded to this latest accusation. The Chinese Embassy in the U.S. stated that the claims are "completely unfounded." The U.S. government has yet to reach a unified approach. The White House advocates for tighter restrictions, while the Department of Commerce believes that comprehensive restrictions would be difficult to enforce. [Original Link]
