The AI firm Anthropic has blocked access to its newly released cutting-edge software, following an order by the United States government.<\/p>\n

In a blog post published Friday, the company behind the Claude chatbot said government agencies had instructed it to prevent all foreign nationals from accessing the AI models Fable 5 and Mythos 5, citing national security concerns.<\/p>\n

Anthropic said it received the order at 5:21pm (21:21 GMT) on Friday and that the letter did not explain the government\u2019s specific security concern in detail.<\/p>\n

The ban also affects foreigners currently in the US \u2013 including those working at Anthropic.<\/p>\n

As a result of the order, the company had to cut off access for everyone at short notice, it said.<\/p>\n

The artificial intelligence behind Anthropic\u2019s Mythos AI model is particularly adept at detecting software vulnerabilities, some of which have remained undiscovered for decades.<\/p>\n

This capability has been used by US authorities and selected companies to plug security gaps.<\/p>\n

However, a concern from the outset has been that such AI could become a dangerous cyberweapon in the wrong hands.<\/p>\n

The Fable 5 model, released just this week, is based on Mythos technology, but its cybersecurity and biotechnology capabilities are blocked.<\/p>\n

Mythos 5 is the non-public full version, which should continue to be used only by government agencies and selected corporate partners to harden their systems.<\/p>\n

Anthropic emphasised that it had so far received only partial information from the government.<\/p>\n

The company said it had reviewed a report which, in its assessment, was likely to have triggered the order.<\/p>\n

Anthropic\u2019s experts concluded that this referred to a limited capability to use the AI to review specific programme code and correct errors.<\/p>\n
