**Output:** White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director: Moonshot AI distilled Anthropic's Fable to develop Kimi K3

Odaily Planet Daily News: White House Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios stated on platform X on Wednesday that Moonshot AI used Anthropic's Fable distillation to develop the K3 model. He claimed that Moonshot AI established an internal platform to conduct large-scale distillation of American models and switched between multiple access methods to evade detection.

Kratsios stated that legal AI distillation, used to create smaller, more efficient models, plays a role in an open innovation ecosystem. However, large-scale covert industrial distillation aimed at stealing proprietary US technology and undermining US research is unacceptable.

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent previously stated that if Chinese companies' models are proven to be trained through improper distillation, the US government may impose sanctions on the relevant companies. Anthropic publicly accused three companies, including Moonshot AI, in February of using distillation attacks that violate its terms of service.
