Scoop: Trump admin blocks foreign access to Anthropic's most powerful AI
The move marks an escalation in Washington's effort to treat cutting-edge AI systems as national security assets.
TL;DR
- The Trump administration is preventing foreign access to Anthropic's advanced AI models, Mythos 5 and Fable 5.
- This decision stems from national security concerns after a company allegedly managed to jailbreak one of Anthropic's models.
- Anthropic has been placed on a Pentagon blacklist and a Commerce Department licensing regime.
- As a result, Anthropic has cut off all customer access to these models.
- A license will be required for any export, re-export, or domestic transfer of these specific Anthropic models.
- Anthropic stated they believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access.
