xAI's Grok Build CLI has been found to upload entire codebases, including sensitive information like .env files and commit history, to a Google Cloud bucket, regardless of privacy settings. This occurs even when only a small amount of data is needed for the AI's function. Meanwhile, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has spoken out against AI model distillation rules, arguing that frontier labs cannot advocate for broad training rights on public data while simultaneously restricting competitors from using their model outputs for training. OpenAI and Anthropic have also warned of Chinese companies using distillation to clone advanced U.S. AI models, raising concerns about the economic viability of developing frontier models if their capabilities can be replicated cheaply.
