The Trump administration announced plans to combat foreign tech companies, specifically China, for allegedly extracting capabilities from U.S. AI models through a technique called distillation. A memo from Chief Science Adviser Michael Kratsios accuses Chinese entities of industrial-scale exploitation of American AI innovation. The action coincides with a Stanford report showing the U.S.-China AI performance gap has effectively closed, and comes as the House Foreign Affairs Committee passed bipartisan legislation to punish such activities.
