WASHINGTON, June 13 — Anthropic said ‌on Friday it has ​been ordered by the US government to suspend access ‌for all foreign nationals to its ​Fable 5 and Mythos 5 artificial intelligence models, citing national security concerns.

The company ​said it received the export control directive on Friday from the government, which gave no specific details of its ‌national security concern.

It is Anthropic’s ⁠understanding, however, that ⁠the government believes it ⁠has become aware ⁠of a ⁠method of bypassing, or “jailbreaking,” Fable 5, according to the company’s statement.

“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,” ⁠Anthropic said.

Anthropic added that it believed ⁠there ⁠was a “misunderstanding” and that it ​is working to ​restore access to the ‌models as soon ​as possible. — Reuters
