Your inference may already be getting resold — and your logs can still look normal. If you run an inference API, gateway, or AI product and you’ve seen suspicious credential sharing, resale, or unexplained usage, DM me. I’m looking to talk to teams seeing this in production. There is a growing reseller market built around stolen API keys, shared subscriptions, proxy access, account farms, and piggybacked sessions. The scary part: much of it can look completely legitimate from the provider side. Valid credential. Valid account. Normal-looking requests. Meanwhile, the same access can be passed through brokers, resold across borders, or quietly used by someone the account owner has never heard of. Most LLM security products focus on what an agent is doing. The blind spot is who is actually behind the account. That’s what we’re building at @infertrail: behavioral detection for inference abuse, credential resale, and unauthorized access. We’re publishing honeypot data, reseller-market research across Russian- and Chinese-language communities, attack patterns, and what we learn building detection for this problem. Follow @infertrail for the research.

Vibe hacking is back

If this is true then distillation isn’t the only way Chinese labs can steal from model labs

I guess X is now serious about being paid to post lol

i will stand behind this the rest of my life

Claude apparently is listed as management for Anthropic???

when you are worth more than a trillion you need a dramatic S1 that states the risk is you might destroy the world

Microsoft is cooked. They keep laying people off haven’t stopped since 2022

I’m never going to be able to afford SF now after this

48% of anthropic’s revenue came through cloud marketplaces so your competitors own the computers you need AND the shop you’re selling in lol idk i’d be a little more worried about who can raise the rent than who’s 2% ahead on a benchmark

why did thariq leave anthropic to become a carpenter? he wanted to use tools without asking permission

we finally found out the real reasons the Pro tier was suspended. to beat Anthropic at Navier Stokes smh

this is what a good B2C launch looks like

i used to be the person who explained why ai cost what it cost. then i started seeing usage we couldn't explain. since then i've seen people steal inference for personal use, for distillation, and for offensive security. inference is valuable. someone pays for every request. steal access and someone else pays for yours. but i think the appeal goes beyond free compute. using someone else's account puts distance between you and the activity. the account owner is visible. the person behind the requests can be harder to identify. my research points to a billion dollars in lost revenue. i've found sophisticated operations with their own payment systems, gateways, account theft operations and marketing. some have 100+ employees. shell companies in the uk and the virgin islands. servers in russia and china. operators in the us and elsewhere. some advertise openly on x and other platforms. some have vc funding. that's where trying to explain an ai bill took me: researching the businesses behind stolen inference. who is actually using the inference you're paying for? give me a follow if you want to learn how to secure yours. i'll share practical tips on protecting it from llm hacking, key theft, session theft, subscription piggybacking and more.

Anthropic's usage is surging and this is just what we know from OpenRouter. Opus 5.5 is going to become the dominant model in the world for most developers.

what a beautiful piece of irony. even anti AI talking heads are using AI

Apparently r/opensource has banned all project about or made with AI so basically anything made or maintained in the past 2 years
