The federal government has shut down Anthropic's latest model, Claude Fable 5, and Claude Mythos 5 AI models, citing "national security" concerns and its potential to be exploited by bad foreign actors.
The shutdown occurred Friday, immediately after the release of the models, after Amazon warned a day earlier that researchers had identified ways to "jailbreak" the models, prompting AI to override its own safety regulations.
