Oh, so now scraping data without permission is bad for AI training? 😂 how ironic 😉

Anthropic accuses Alibaba of using thousands fraudulent accounts to extract Claude AI model capabiliti and data. Anthropic urged Congress to penalise the companies behind scrapping attacks like this and to ramp up measures to prevent US tech from being stolen. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwyklykn5dwo
How about Anthropic pay first for stolen books, and all content out there for its shity ai?

Anthropic accuses Chinese rival Alibaba of illicitly extracting AI capabilities

The firm alleged that Alibaba used fraudulent accounts to access data from its Claude AI model.

I wonder if Anthropic would be willing to trade, say, 30-40% of it's shares to the US government in return for that protection?

Not that the US government should accept a deal that shitty, but just as a way to know if Anthropic really believes that it's in danger from Alibaba.

I think the pleading to Congress for help is performative bullshit to divert the attention of its soon-to-be-bankrupt-and-highly-litigious shareholders.
