Moonshot AI faces allegations of distilling Anthropic’s Fable for K3

The post quotes allegations that Moonshot AI distilled Anthropic’s Fable to develop its K3 model, using an internal platform for large-scale distillation and switching access methods to avoid detection.
It also says Moonshot bought GB300-equipped servers and accessed GB300s in Thailand. The author rejects the timeline as impossible and argues the model outputs are not IP, citing the Copyright Office.
The result is a sharp dispute over model training practices, intellectual property, and how such claims should be interpreted.
