Anthropic pulls Fable 5, Mythos 5 worldwide after US order
Anthropic just pulled the plug on its top AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, worldwide.
This happened after a US government order banned non-US citizens from using these systems unless they get official approval.
The move is all about protecting national security, and there are tough penalties if you break the rules.
Mythos exposure, Fable jailbreak, Washington response
The shutdown was triggered by two big worries: the advanced Mythos model had been made available to an organization in a foreign country with links to the Chinese Communist Party, raising red flags about misuse; plus, Amazon researchers found a way to jailbreak Fable 5 and reveal sensitive information.
Anthropic dispatched a senior technical team to Washington in an attempt to contain the fallout and restore access to its systems, showing just how seriously everyone's taking AI safety right now.
