BRUSSELS — U.S. artificial intelligence leader Anthropic is facing growing criticism over its decision to keep a new model with supreme hacking abilities closed off from European regulators.

The company’s actions will face scrutiny in the European Parliament on Wednesday, where officials from the European Commission and the bloc's cyber agency ENISA will discuss the dangers of the Mythos model. Anthropic won’t join the hearing, saying it was “unable to accept” the invitation “at short notice.”

The fact that Anthropic said it will skip the meeting is “extremely worrying,” said Dutch European Parliament lawmaker Kim van Sparrentak, who called the debate.
