Anthropic suspends advanced AI models globally following US national security directive

Anthropic has suspended access to its advanced AI models, Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, globally. The decision, made just three days after launch, complies with a US government directive citing national security.
American AI startup Anthropic suspended access to its advanced models, Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, on June 12, just three days after their commercial release. The decision followed a directive from the US government, specifically the Trump administration, which invoked "national security" under export control regulations. This order mandates cutting off access to the models for "any foreign national, inside or outside" the United States. The abrupt halt to global availability has prompted concerns in France and Europe, with some observers interpreting the action as a significant development in the realm of artificial intelligence.
