No Breakthrough in Anthropic Talks with Trump Administration
The company disabled access to its most advanced models for all customers after the government cited national security concerns, according to Anthropic.
- Senior Anthropic technical staff met White House officials in Washington on Monday to resolve a dispute over the company's most advanced AI models, Fable and Mythos, which were forced offline.
- Following Amazon researchers' findings that the Fable model could provide information helpful to cyberattackers, the United States government ordered Anthropic to cut off foreign access amid 'jailbreaking' concerns.
- Anthropic, valued at nearly $1 trillion, competes with major tech companies but previously clashed with the Pentagon over a $200 million contract regarding surveillance and autonomous weapons safeguards.
- Anthropic disabled access to its most powerful systems to comply with the government directive, though Customers retain access to other Anthropic models during ongoing negotiations.
- Venture capitalist David Sacks, a Trump administration crypto and AI advisor, wrote that The Admin wants to resolve safety issues quickly, with Fable access restorable once Anthropic complies with requested protocols.
