I think we should start calling it "distillation terrorism" just to make it sound even more absurd.

> Translation: Alibaba will continue distillation attacks using accounts that aren't directly attributable to it's own corporate infrastructure.

What's a "distillation attack"? How is it different from simply distillation?

(Mis)anthropic already performed "distillation attacks" on the internet.

i can see why they want to stop it but 1. you have to pay for the "attack" 2. these AI companies trained on copyrighted content without permission or attribution to anyone who's data was used to train.

As long as they're paying for the tokens, there's no attack . Otherwise you have to call training on copyrighted material theft.

Did Anthropic perform "distillation attacks" when they hoovered up the entire internet?

How exactly the word attack fits in that phrase?
