China Is Stealing America’s AI — And The White House Just Dropped The Evidence

America ı By Samuel Lopez

— NSTM-4, Executive Office of the President, April 23, 2026

The memo identifies the following specific threats:

  • Foreign operatives are deploying tens of thousands of proxy accounts to evade detection while querying American AI systems at massive scale.
  • They are using sophisticated jailbreaking techniques to bypass safety guardrails and extract proprietary, restricted outputs that would not otherwise be accessible.
  • The resulting stolen models are being used to deliberately strip security protocols — including the ideological neutrality and truth-seeking mechanisms built into American AI systems.
  • These stripped-down versions are then potentially fed into military, intelligence, and mass surveillance systems — enabling authoritarian governments to weaponize American innovation against their own people and against the United States.
  • While the stolen models don’t fully replicate the originals, they are close enough to “perform comparably on select benchmarks at a fraction of the cost,” giving adversaries a massive, unfair competitive advantage.

This Isn’t Just Theory — Companies Have Already Been Hit

The reason NSTM-4 carries so much weight is that it isn’t speculative. American AI companies have already documented these attacks. In February 2026, Anthropic — the company behind the Claude AI — revealed that Chinese AI labs including DeepSeek, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax used approximately 24,000 fraudulent accounts to extract millions of Claude responses for use in training competing systems.

OpenAI has similarly reported large-scale distillation attempts. And in 2024, federal prosecutors charged a former Google engineer with stealing AI trade secrets and transferring them to Chinese companies — a criminal case that sent shockwaves through Silicon Valley.

Let that sink in. These aren’t isolated incidents. This is a coordinated, systematic, government-level campaign to dismantle America’s most valuable technological competitive advantage — one query at a time.

The Trump Administration’s Four-Point Counteroffensive

NSTM-4 is not just a warning — it is a declaration of action. The Trump Administration has formally committed to four concrete steps to protect American AI dominance:

  1. INTELLIGENCE SHARING: Federal agencies will share active intelligence with U.S. AI companies about specific foreign attempts to conduct unauthorized distillation — including the exact tactics being used and the actors involved. No more leaving the private sector in the dark.
  2. PRIVATE SECTOR COORDINATION: The administration will enable American AI companies to better coordinate their defenses — building a unified shield across the industry rather than leaving each company to fight alone.
  3. BEST PRACTICES DEVELOPMENT: The White House will partner with private industry to develop the tools, protocols, and best practices necessary to identify, mitigate, and remediate industrial-scale distillation attacks before they succeed.
  4. ACCOUNTABILITY MEASURES: The administration is exploring a range of measures to hold foreign actors accountable. Experts have floated export controls, diplomatic protests, and targeted technology restrictions. Make no mistake — consequences are coming.

The Geopolitical Flashpoint: The Trump-Xi Summit

Here is what makes this memo even more explosive in its timing: it was released just three weeks before President Trump is scheduled to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing on May 14, 2026 — a summit that was already delayed once from its original late-March date.

Releasing NSTM-4 now is not accidental. This is a deliberate geopolitical signal. Washington is walking into Beijing with documented evidence of AI theft and a public declaration that it will no longer tolerate it. This memo will almost certainly be on the table — openly or otherwise — when Trump and Xi sit down.

The Chinese Embassy in Washington has not immediately responded to requests for comment on the memo. That silence is telling.
