We also examine the deeper hypocrisy in the global AI race: Western frontier models were trained on massive amounts of public internet data, often without consent, while now accusing rivals of “stealing” outputs. Is this about intellectual property, national security, or AI geopolitics?

This explainer breaks down the technical, legal, and geopolitical angles behind the US–China AI cold war - and why model distillation is becoming the new battleground in global AI competition.
