## Resource

Anthropic is shutting down its top AI models, Fable Five and Mythos Five, globally after a U.S. government directive citing national security risks — specifically fears these models could be weaponized to uncover software vulnerabilities. The company claims the evidence is narrow and unjustified, warning such restrictions could cripple the entire frontier AI industry. With access now blocked for non-U.S. citizens and AWS revoking global access, Anthropic is scrambling to restore service — including for international employees — while the broader debate over AI safety and government control intensifies.
