TechCrunch • • business
Key Points:
- The Trump administration is easing its ban on Anthropic's cybersecurity models, allowing Mythos 5 to be accessed by over 100 specific U.S. government agencies and companies, including their non-American employees.
- This reversal permits non-American employees at these organizations, as well as Anthropic’s own non-American staff, to use Mythos 5, reversing part of the original restriction.
- Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed that appropriate safeguards are now deemed in place to allow trusted partners access to the Claude Mythos 5 Model.
- The directive does not currently apply to Fable 5, another version of Mythos 5 that was released prior to the ban and claimed to have stronger protections.
- Both Mythos 5 and Fable 5 were initially pulled after researchers reportedly bypassed their security guardrails, raising concerns about their cybersecurity robustness.
