Alibaba Rises as Anthropic Alleges 151 Million Illicit Exchanges
Alibaba Group rose about 0.7% to $109.42 despite Anthropic’s claim that operators tied to the company improperly extracted Claude’s reasoning capabilities. Anthropic links more than 151 million exchanges between May and July to an unauthorized distillation campaign that peaked near three million exchanges per day and used thousands of fraudulent accounts. Alibaba did not respond, and the allegations were not confirmed by a court or regulator.
