Anthropic disables models due to US export controls

5x SOURCES 🌐 📅 2026-06-13

⚡ Score: 9.3

+++ Export controls on Anthropic's flagship models suggest the US government finally noticed that frontier AI is, well, strategically important—a realization apparently worth escalating through official channels. +++

Anthropic says it is disabling Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all customers after the US government issued an export control order, citing national security concerns
