Anthropic comes to Washington to meet White House officials
Anthropic met with senior White House officials after the US government restricted access to its advanced AI models Fable and Mythos, citing security concerns. The Trump administration blocked foreign nationals from using these models, while the Pentagon labeled Anthropic a 'supply chain risk' over its refusal to permit use in autonomous weapons. Restrictions may inadvertently aid cyberattackers by limiting institutions' access to powerful open-source AI models.
