AI company Anthropic took its advanced AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, offline after receiving an export control directive from the Trump administration preventing use by foreign nationals.
This move represents the U.S. government’s significant effort to restrict access to the most advanced artificial intelligence models.
Anthropic expressed disagreement with the directive, stating it lacks specificity regarding national security concerns and hopes to restore access soon.
The directive follows an executive order from President Trump establishing a framework to evaluate national security risks in advanced AI before public release.
Anthropic’s Mythos has the capability to find software flaws on a large scale, potentially posing serious risks to economies, public safety, and national security if misused.
Regulators and policymakers are urged to develop robust cybersecurity measures to address the evolving challenges posed by advanced AI technologies.
