What Happened
The U.S. government has issued a directive to the AI company Anthropic, requiring it to block foreign nationals from accessing its advanced AI models, including Mythos and Fable. This order has led Anthropic to disable these models and halt the development of new ones.
The directive, reportedly originating from the Trump administration, has raised concerns about national security and the implications for the broader AI industry. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei had previously warned that certain AI models posed a national security threat.
The move by the U.S. government signifies a response to perceived risks associated with foreign access to cutting-edge artificial intelligence technology. The shutdown of these models by Anthropic is a direct consequence of this governmental order.
