White House accuses China of industrial‑scale theft of U.S. frontier AI intellectual property using tens of thousands of proxy accounts.
Michael Kratsios, director of the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy, warned of imminent crackdown and accountability measures.
The memo will share threat information with American AI firms to help coordinate defenses against unauthorized distillation.
The warning comes weeks before a planned summit between President Donald Trump and President Xi Jinping in Beijing.
