- The Trump administration issued an export control on Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models, deeming them a national security threat and forcing their shutdown.
- Experts criticize the move as contradictory and lacking clear justification, potentially harming U.S. AI leadership and cybersecurity defenses.
