is anthropic.com a reliable source for an information that benefits anthropic's image?

I don't believe a word they say.

They are lying for their stupid IPO

I love open Chinese llms but this seems 100% plausible and and I think ur wring. This is in line with how Chinese companies need to work around the system since America tries to handicap them. This is actually a very smart way to get high quality trianjng data for their future models. Unfortunate about leaking private customer data to a us company though.

Also the article and the evidence presented by Antropic all seems very plausible.

ummm, the only times I ever used deepseek was fully offline on my hardware, I call bullshit

What this really boils down to is that Anthropic and OpenAI hope to be the only ones that use someone else's copyrighted information without any legal or financial complications.

Alright, so what? Also this (even if it's true and not another clown show by claude) won't affect models that aren't hosted by moonshot or deepseek.

You're telling me that is routing requests through a model 70x the price?

[-] Agent641@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

You underestimate the willingness of companies to take a loss to earn street cred.

Yeah that's pretty crazy but this bit is crazier - https://www.anthropic.com/threat-intelligence-report-september-2026#cyber-operations-sep-26
