June 30 (UPI) -- The Trump administration has lifted export restrictions on artificia lintelligence company Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models, the company said Tuesday evening.
"We've received notice that the Department of Commerce has lifted export controls on Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5," Anthropic said in a statement, CNN reported. "We'll begin restoring access tomorrow, and will share an update soon."
The statement came not long after Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick posted on social media about Anthropic, saying "we have worked closely with Anthropic to analyze and approve Fable 5 to ensure alignment across the U.S. government and strengthen America's leadership in AI."
Anthropic disabled customer access to Fable, a consumer version of its Mythos AI model with more safeguards, and Mythos itself several weeks ago after the export ban June 12. The ban required the company to suspend all use by foreign nationals inside or outside the United States, including Anthropic employees.
