The US government's decision to impose export controls on Anthropic's most powerful AI models is drawing scrutiny from the European Commission, which is assessing the implications for EU users.
On Friday, the Trump administration issued a directive banning foreign nationals from using Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models, citing national security concerns, and forcing the company to cut off access for all non-US users, including Europeans.
Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are considered state-of-the-art models. Access had initially been restricted to a select group of users to assess their potential to identify and exploit vulnerabilities for cyberattacks.
