What happened
U.S. officials imposed export controls on AI models, citing national security needs. Anthropic faced government scrutiny after the Pentagon flagged the company as a supply-chain risk. In response to the government order, Anthropic disabled access to its models Fable 5 and Mythos 5 to prevent foreign nationals from using the systems.
