US President Donald Trump's Science and Technology adviser Michael Kratsios said Moonshot AI carried out the campaign through what is known as distillation - when a weaker AI model extracts answers from a stronger one.

The BBC has contacted Moonshot, the Chinese embassy in Washington, Anthropic, the White House, and Nvidia for comment.

Anthropic urged Congress to penalise the companies behind the alleged attacks and heighten measures to prevent US technology from being stolen, according to the latest reporting on the story.
