Anthropic pulls Claude Fable, Mythos models after US export ban

Anthropic recently took its AI models, Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, offline due to a U.S. government export-control directive barring foreign access. The company had previously warned that these models possess capabilities for both cybersecurity defense and exploitation. Despite Anthropic's compliance, experts believe this action is a temporary measure since similar AI capabilities exist in other companies and will likely emerge soon.

Critics argue that the focus should shift toward developing transparent policies for managing AI advancements, as current restrictions may not effectively mitigate risks and could hinder safety efforts.
