US agencies say Chinese AI firms systematically distilled ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini models
The NSA, CISA, and FBI issued a joint advisory alleging that Chinese AI companies, including DeepSeek and Moonshot AI, have run large-scale campaigns since 2024 to extract capabilities from leading US models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok. The agencies say these firms used millions of queries routed through multiple accounts, APIs, proxies, and cloud providers to generate synthetic training data and build competing models such as DeepSeek's R1/R3 and Moonshot's Kimi-K2/K3.
