- Anthropic has taken its latest AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, offline due to a directive from the Trump administration to restrict foreign access.
- This move represents the U.S. government’s most significant effort to date to control access to advanced AI models.
- Anthropic disagreed with the directive as it lacks specifics on national security concerns and does not align with their belief in a transparent and fair process for technology deployment.
- The directive was issued just days after President Trump signed an executive order creating a voluntary vetting process for advanced AI systems prior to public release.
- Anthropic views this as a “misunderstanding” and hopes to restore access to the models once the issue is resolved.
