00:00It's Benzinga, bringing Wall Street to Main Street.
00:02Anthropic sent senior staffers to Washington, D.C. on Monday to meet with Trump administration
00:07officials, according to CNBC. The meetings followed a government export control directive
00:13on Friday, ordering the company to suspend access to its new AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5.
00:19The directive, citing national security authorities, required Anthropic to block all foreign nationals
00:25from accessing the models. Anthropic disabled access for all customers to ensure compliance.
00:30The government called Anthropic on Friday with the order and followed up with a formal letter
00:35later that day. Anthropic argued that using a narrow potential jailbreak as grounds to recall
00:40a widely deployed commercial model would effectively halt new model deployments across the entire AI
00:45industry. The company called the dispute a misunderstanding and said it is working to
00:50restore access. For all things money, visit Benzinga.com.
