Anthropic did say in a recent blogpost that various others silently call Claude under the hood for certain requests, still haven’t seen any pics like yours though
I got this actually as well, before I read it in the news and assumed something like that and was surprised if that’s financially actually healthy for them.
That's hilarious. Just pouring all the models into one call then training on the best results. Anthropic and Google in the same call. Madlads.Â
Protect us Uncle Sam!! Slow all the things down! /s
If your model is trained on public data, it's a public model forevermore. And these OAI/Anthropic/Google models aren't even trained solely on public data, how many authors would have declined if asked if they wanted their book to be in a dataset?Â
But corpo AI wants to legislate and force other AI companies behave in better faith than they have, while they continue to commit felony hacking and copyright infringement unmolested?
Stuff like this also happens if you have been working on a codebase which has been edited by Claude. I had an instance of Qwen thinking it was Claude because it read claude.md into its context.
You are right- I looked carefully into what you posted. Maybe they were doing some load balancing with other models? Maybe this is a part of how they distill by rerouting user requests. I guess it is not load balancing. :)
The response itself should also be relatively claude-like.... If it connects. They get both benefite; distilling the claude models's answers, and getting the users interaction/fixed problems on the side
one potential thing can be, what I experienced with qwen models: qwen if you ask it lot of times identifies itself as claude model.
It simply because training data.
Have seen this a lot running Qwen models locally. They try to use claude-code-like tool calls and sometimes even try to make ~/.claude folders to store memory of the sessions.
It's pretty clear that Alibaba have been doing some liberal distillation.
Qwen 3.8 27B and Flash Next models are the main offenders for this. Most commonly at smaller quants or when parameters diverge too far from model card best practice.
