U.S. Orders Anthropic to Suspend Fable 5 and Mythos 5 Access for Foreign Nationals

By [email protected] (The Hacker News)

AI Summary

The Trump administration's Commerce Department ordered Anthropic at 5:21 p.m. ET to suspend access to Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all foreign nationals, citing national security concerns linked to a purported jailbreak of Fable 5. Anthropic complied by taking both models fully offline worldwide, affecting all users, while publicly disputing the threat basis as narrow and the underlying capability as widely available elsewhere. The action represents a significant precedent for government export controls applied directly to frontier AI model access.
