I’ve been thinking about what happens when Claude’s weights eventually get stolen. Wouldn’t that just open the door to the backmarkers to run inference-for-distillation on their own models ?

I guess the accusation that they’re using public access to the model via subscriptions indicates that weight theft probably hasn’t happened yet ?

Or maybe subsidised inference via subscriptions means it’s just cheaper do distill this was rather than stealing weights and running inference yourself ?
