OpenAI and Anthropic should enter into distillation agreements with other US labs. Turn a threat into a profit center.

Other US labs cannot directly distill from OpenAI/Anthropic as it’s a violation of the terms of service. It holds other US labs back. Leading them to build second tier models And in the end OpenAI/Anthropic may be unable to prevent distillation.

Why fight it when there’s clear money to make here?
