Anthropic이 중국을 차단했지만, Alibaba는 Anthropic을 차단
anthropic이 중국 기업들의 자사 코드 모델 사용을 차단한 가운데, alibaba는 숨겨진 플래그를 발견하고 직원들의 사용을 금지했다. 글로벌 ai 인프라에서 커지는 파편화와 지정학적 긴장을 부각한다.
anthropic is blocking chinese companies from using claude code through explicit terms of service bans, yet firms like ant financial and bytedance access the model via cloud loopholes and overseas subsidiaries. concurrently, alibaba issued a company-wide ban on claude code, requiring employees to delete instances, following the discovery of hidden code that flagged chinese users to prevent distillation. anthropic confirmed the code was an obsolete anti-abuse experiment and denied it is currently active. this exchange signals a hardening stance in ai geopolitics, where us labs aggressively protect ip and chinese entities scrutinize foreign tools for security risks.
