The US government has lifted export restrictions on Anthropic's advanced Claude models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, following a temporary ban enacted on June 12 due to national security concerns. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick confirmed that Anthropic no longer needs a license for exports or transfers of these models after coordinating with the government to address risks. Fable 5 is now available globally, and US organizations have had access restored to Mythos 5 since June 26. To secure this release, Anthropic expanded its government partnership, established a 24/7 jailbreak monitoring team, and launched a HackerOne security program. However, Anthropic noted that the tightened safety classifiers on Fable 5 may cause a trade-off where benign prompts are blocked during routine coding and debugging tasks.
In their words
“the government and private sector have worked together in a way we have never seen before and this foundation of America First is unprecedented.”
“no longer need a license for exports or in-country transfers of its Claude Mythos and Claude Fable AI models.”
