The largest model theft accusation in AI history. Anthropic claims three Chinese companies used 24,000 fake accounts and 16 million exchanges to systematically extract Claude's capabilities — specifically targeting agentic reasoning, tool use, and coding. MiniMax reportedly pivoted to new Claude models within 24 hours of each release. This specifically targets the exact capabilities powering Claude Code and enterprise agent workflows. If you serve models via API, implement usage pattern detection. If you consume them, understand your dependency chains.
