How dark web hackers are stealing Anthropic and OpenAI's top models

Foreign companies have allegedly been accessing American AI systems to train competing technology using a process called distillation and selling copycat versions at a lower price. Anthropic is trying to crack down on what it says are illegal practices that involve use of the dark web and intellectual property theft. Jacob Klein, Anthropic's head of threat intelligence, says, "there's an entire illicit ecosystem to try to gain access to Claude and other models.” CNBC's Kate Rooney has the story.

Why this matters

Alleged dark-web access and model distillation could undermine proprietary AI safeguards and enable lower-cost copycat systems. The activity signals that leading model providers face a cross-provider intellectual-property and credential-access threat, not just conventional software piracy.
