The directive sets a precedent for software-level export controls, impacting global AI access and complicating compliance for decentralized platforms. The post Anthropic faces US export controls, pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 offline for all users appeared first on Crypto Briefing.
For generations, technology export controls referred to the transfer of source code to other countries. But that no longer works, as the latest Anthropic fight with the US Commerce Department makes clear. On Friday, Anthropic announced that it had received instructions from Commerce “to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Anthropic models will not be affected.” Technically, the Commerce letter doesn’t explicitly say that, but lawyers and consultants argue that, when combined with an earlier executive order declaring Anthropic a supply chain risk, that very well might be what it means. What the Commerce letter says is that Anthropic needs a license to export Fable 5 and Mythos 5 (a “deemed export“), listing four circu
Anthropic has spent much of this week fighting to get its newest AI models back online after the Trump administration abruptly ordered the company to cut access for all foreign nationals, including users inside the US and its own employees, forcing Anthropic to block access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for everyone. "To my knowledge, this is the first time US export controls have been used to control access to an AI model in this way." The Trump administration has not publicly explained the legal basis for the order, but in a statement on its website, Anthropic said the government cited "national security authorities" to justify "an export con … Read the full story at The Verge.

As the rest of the country celebrated the USA's first World Cup win and the New York Knicks championship, Anthropic spent its weekend fighting the Trump administration over its latest model release. At 5:21 PM on Friday, the company received a US export control directive to suspend access to its Mythos 5 and Fable 5 AI models by "any foreign national" inside or outside the US, "including foreign national Anthropic employees." The only way that was possible, Anthropic determined, was to completely disable products it spent the past week hyping - and travel to Washington, DC in hopes of changing President Donald Trump's mind. Now, over the com … Read the full story at The Verge.
Anthropic was already navigating one dispute with the government in its standoff with the Pentagon, and then came an order on June 12th to block off foreign access to its most recently released AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5. When they launched on June 9th, Anthropic said “Fable 5’s capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available,” and that Claude Mythos 5 had the same underlying model, “but with the safeguards lifted in some areas.” According to reports, the order came after conversations between Amazon and the White House about researchers saying they found ways to get Fable 5 to serve information that could be used in cyberattacks. Anthropic responded by shutting access to both models for all customers, saying, “We are complying with the government’s legal directive and are removing access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all users. However, we disagree that the finding of a narrow potential jailbreak should be cause for recalling a commercial model deployed

According to a new report from Semafor, the White House's decision to impose export restrictions on Anthropic's Mythos was driven in part by fears that it had been accessed by a group linked to China. If the Chinese government actually had access to Mythos 5 or Fable 5, it would present a serious national security risk. The government could also attempt to reverse engineer the model through distillation, a method in which a "student" AI is trained on a more advanced model to replicate its behavior. The White House has not confirmed this report, and a post on X by Trump advisor David Sacks did not mention China. Instead, Sacks focused on a r … Read the full story at The Verge.

Calls from Amazon CEO Andy Jassy and other tech firms prompted the Trump administration to suspend foreign access to Anthropic’s Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models on Friday.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the export control directive that led to Anthropic cutting off access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 was triggered in part by cybersecurity research from Amazon and conversations between CEO Andy Jassy and the White House. According to the report, the paper from Amazon claims that, through a series of prompts, it was able to get Fable 5 to serve up information that could be used in cyberattacks. Amazon has yet to respond to a request for comment. Shortly after Jassy shared the company's findings with the government, it made the call to block its use by foreign nationals. Complicating this issue is that many of … Read the full story at The Verge.
