Anthropic accuses Alibaba of AI model theft; IBM unveils new chip

Anthropic has accused Alibaba of illicitly extracting capabilities from its Claude AI model, labeling it the largest known distillation attack against the company. This technique involves training a smaller model on the outputs of a larger one. Separately, IBM has developed a new prototype chip with 100 billion transistors, aiming to extend Moore's Law, while Europe faces power grid challenges due to a record-breaking heat wave. AI

IMPACT Accusations of AI model theft highlight ongoing security concerns and competitive pressures in the AI development landscape.
