Trump administration officials concluded talks with Anthropic on Monday without lifting export controls that were imposed last week on the company\u2019s most advanced AI models in response to jailbreaking concerns, according to three people briefed on the matter.<\/p>\n

The administration continues to believe that there are ways to disable some of the guardrails on Anthropic\u2019s Claude Fable 5, effectively allowing users to access the more powerful cybersecurity capabilities of the company\u2019s Mythos model, the people said.<\/p>\n

Anthropic has said for days that the administration\u2019s concerns are overblown, a position it reiterated in working group meetings held at the Commerce Department with government researchers from Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) and the Office of the National Cyber Director Sean Cairncross, one of the people said.<\/p>\n

The meetings were also attended by Commerce secretary Howard Lutnick, who dialed in by conference call from the G7 summit in Evian, France. Cairncross himself did not participate, the person said.<\/p>\n

On Anthropic\u2019s side, cofounder and chief compute officer Tom Brown and head of external affairs Sarah Heck have been leading the discussions. Anthropic\u2019s head of frontier red teaming, Logan Graham, and senior security researcher Nicholas Carlini flew to Washington, DC for the talks.<\/p>\n

\u201cBoth parties are working quickly to get this resolved,\u201d an Anthropic spokesperson said in a statement to WIRED. A White House spokesperson declined to comment.<\/p>\n

It was not immediately clear how any next steps might play out. The Commerce Department expressed a willingness to find a way to bring Fable 5 back online for consumer use, but it would likely be contingent on Anthropic fully resolving the jailbreak concerns, the person said.<\/p>\n

Ringing the Alarm<\/h2>\n

The emergency talks have come at a fraught political moment for Anthropic, which was already in a prolonged fight with the Pentagon over whether its AI models could be used for certain military applications.<\/p>\n\n
