The United States government lifted restrictions on foreign access to Anthropic’s most powerful AI models. Anthropic announced it will begin restoring access to Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 from tomorrow. The US Department of Commerce notified the company that it removed export controls. Anthropic expressed thanks to users for patience. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said the company agreed to detect and address security risks. It will work with the government on standards and report malicious activity. Anthropic shut off the models last month after an order to restrict foreign nationals. Officials cited national security concerns around potential vulnerabilities in Fable 5. The company later got approval for trusted US organizations. Experts note the decision avoids messy precedents for the industry. It raises questions about government approval for future frontier models.
