They shouldn't be. But the point is, they are. OpenAI and Anthropic are paying many rights holders for access to their data (reddit, NYT, etc.).
So distillation, among other things, allows Chinese labs to indirectly benefit from these arrangements at no cost to them.
Oh really - how much are individual Redditors getting paid?
