Google's latest AI threat tracker report mostly describes how threat actors are using AI, but the report begins by calling out distillation attacks. Google frames these types of attacks as a form of intellectual property theft.
Google cited one example that involved more than 100,000 queries to its Gemini AI. The campaign appeared to be about "replicating Gemini's reasoning ability in non-English target languages."
Google didn't call out any particular country or competitor, but instead referred to "frequent model extraction attacks from private sector entities all over the world and researchers seeking to clone proprietary logic."
By contrast, in a memo sent to U.S. lawmakers, OpenAI said that the majority of distillation activity appears to originate from China and that it has seen "evolving but persistent methods" being used against its models.
This was first published 3 weeks ago when it was all about drug boats - and the US had just siezed the first oil tanker. Now this analysis takes on a whole new meaning in the context of everything that has happened in the last 48 hours.
The article is actually not about trump at all... rather it is a very clearly articulated case that the fed is completely subject to agency capture by the big banks and outlines a solution for solving this problem

Thank you... this is what it's all about - it's really as simple as that.
This post and the discussion is great!!! Brings me back to 2 different projects/products that I developed that never made it to market (2009 and 2014). I also kept a log of ideas most of which withered in the light of day but a few persisted. And for each project I went off to live in a cave and code for a year (not recommended). Looking back I absolutely should have shared what I was working on and found support from a community (highly recommended). All of these ideas are excellent. Thank you for sharing them.
