Anthropic has responded after the Trump administration issued a directive banning foreign nationals from using some of its most powerful AI tools, saying it would comply with the order but that it disagreed with the reasoning behind it.

In a blog post late on Friday evening, the company said it had received a letter from the government at 5:21pm ET requiring it to suspend access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models over national security concerns.

The ban applies to foreign nationals both inside and outside the US and includes foreign national Anthropic employees, Anthropic said.
