U.S. accuses Moonshot AI of covert distillation for K3 and GB300 access in Thailand

The U.S. says Moonshot AI used a sophisticated internal platform to conduct large-scale distillation from U.S. frontier models for its K3 model, switching access methods to avoid detection.
The statement also says Moonshot acquired GB300-equipped servers and accessed GB300 systems in Thailand, framing the case as an example of covert industrial distillation that the U.S. considers unacceptable, while still distinguishing legitimate small-model distillation from technology theft.
