The letter to Senators Tim Scott and Elizabeth Warren, dated June 10 and surfacing publicly this week, frames it as model distillation run against Claude at scale (Anthropic). A related claim pegs it at 28.8 million fraudulent exchanges, though that figure is single-sourced and thin on corroboration, so hold it loosely. The genuinely hard open question underneath: how do you even prove distillation from API outputs at scale? We don't have a good answer, and that gap is going to matter for export-control fights.
