US government halts Anthropic's Mythos 5 and Fable 5 AI models

The company engaged in urgent discussions with the Trump administration, including the Commerce Department and National Cyber Director, to address these concerns. Anthropic argued that the reported vulnerabilities were not unique to their models and were widely available in other systems, including OpenAI's GPT-5.5, while also stating they had shared information about the issue with the government.
