The Trump administration directed Anthropic to revoke access to its advanced AI models following concerns about ties to China. The move led the company to take its most powerful offerings offline last week.
US officials ordered Anthropic to block SK Telecom from using Claude Mythos due to alleged connections between the South Korean telecom giant and China. The Trump administration imposed export controls on the company's most advanced AI technology as a result.
Anthropic pulled Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 offline after the government barred any foreign nationals from accessing the services. The directive came after officials identified a jailbreak that could circumvent the models' cybersecurity guardrails.
The company has been in talks with the White House since Friday but has not yet reached an agreement to reinstate the models. Anthropic initially released Mythos 5 privately to a select group and limited Fable 5's responses on sensitive topics.
