Washington is stepping up AI export controls on China while working more closely with US AI companies to curb technology leakage. Anthropic said major Chinese AI labs are widely using unauthorised model “distillation” to copy leading US models, and it has begun blocking accounts tied to the practice. The US lead in frontier AI models is assessed at 6–9 months, but could be 12–18 months without distillation, according to Anthropic.
