To be fair, Anthropic is participating in the misinformation by dishonestly characterizing what Alibaba is doing with the data as "Distillation" rather than the more probable adding a small fraction to the "fine-tuning" and/or benchmarking data sets.

I understand why - the distillation narrative casts Qwen as a poor copy of a superior model, and cultivates ground for political lobbying for bans. That doesn't make it less dishonest, but I suppose profits trump ethics.
