US allows Anthropic to release Mythos AI to 'trusted' US organizations
New York Post • • business
Key Points:
- The U.S. government has permitted Anthropic to release its Claude Mythos 5 AI model to over 100 vetted U.S. organizations, partially reversing a recent suspension due to national security concerns.
- Access to Mythos 5 is limited to trusted companies, including many Fortune 500 firms, while Anthropic continues working with the government to expand availability and re-enable access to its Fable 5 model.
- The government's selection process for approved companies has faced criticism for lack of transparency and concerns over excessive governmental control and potential rule of law issues.
- OpenAI also delayed the full public launch of GPT-5.6 at the government's request, restricting access to a small group of vetted partners, reflecting broader regulatory caution over advanced AI releases.
- Experts warn that in the wrong hands, models like Mythos 5 could enable sophisticated cyberattacks, especially in critical sectors, prompting ongoing government oversight and export controls amid geopolitical tensions.
