Anthropic Cuts Off Fable 5, Mythos 5 After US Orders Foreign Block on 2 AI Models

Summary
Anthropic fully shut access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after the Trump administration ordered the company to block foreign users under export controls.
The move appears to extend to deemed exports inside the US, meaning foreign-national employees could also be barred from the models they helped build, according to reactions from security and policy experts.
Critics said the blanket restriction was incoherent and self-defeating, arguing it could stifle US AI development even as Washington says it wants to preserve an American lead.
The order follows a June 12 Commerce action against the two models after claims Mythos 5 could be jailbroken, escalating a broader White House clash with Anthropic over AI security and access.
