Anthropic to Disable Fable 5, Mythos 5 After US Export-Control Order
Business Insider • • general
Key Points:
- Anthropic announced it will disable access to its latest AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, following a US government export control order restricting foreign use due to national security concerns.
- The government order applies to all foreign nationals, including Anthropic employees, effectively disabling the models for everyone to ensure compliance.
- Anthropic believes the concern centers on a potential "jailbreak" vulnerability in Fable 5 but disputes the severity, noting the issue is narrow and involves known vulnerabilities present in other models.
- This action escalates ongoing tensions between Anthropic and the US government over AI safety and national security, with pending lawsuits related to the Pentagon's designation of Anthropic as a supply chain risk.
- Anthropic will continue offering access to its other AI models and expressed disagreement with the government's findings while complying with the order.
