A repost argues that model outputs are not IP and therefore should be free to distill, comparing them to non-copyrightable AI images.
The attached screenshot adds the real flashpoint: a claim that Moonshot AI distilled Anthropic’s Fable for its K3 model, with commentary framing the issue as industrial espionage and a national-security concern. The post is less a policy explainer than a snapshot of the broader legal and competitive fight over model distillation.
