Anthropic technical staff are meeting with White House officials to resolve a dispute over disabled AI models. The company suspended global access to its Mythos 5 and Fable 5 models.
The shutdown followed a Commerce Department export control order citing national security risks. This directive barred foreign nationals from accessing the technology. Anthropic subsequently disabled access for all users globally.
Government officials fear that jailbreaking the models could expose powerful cybersecurity capabilities. Anthropic claims the dispute stems from a misunderstanding over a narrow potential jailbreak. The company is currently working with the government to restore access.
