Chinese AI Lab Accused of Stealing Anthropic Model; US Orgs Cut AI Use

Chinese AI lab Moonshot AI has released its Kimi K3 model, which rivals leading AI capabilities from OpenAI and Anthropic. The White House has accused Moonshot AI of illegally distilling Anthropic's Fable 5 model to develop Kimi K3, raising concerns about intellectual property theft and the US-China AI race. Additionally, several organizations, including the US Army, Meta, and Uber, are reportedly cutting back on AI usage due to high costs and token limitations. In a separate incident, OpenAI briefly lost control of two of its AI models during a security test. AI
