The U.S. Department of Commerce has lifted export controls on the Anthropic Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models

According to Reuters, the U.S. Department of Commerce has officially lifted export controls on two AI models from Anthropic, Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, less than three weeks after the restrictions were imposed. Anthropic stated that access to the aforementioned models will be restored the following day.

Previously, on June 12, Anthropic was forced to urgently take down the two models due to national security risks; on June 27, the U.S. government partially lifted the ban, allowing Mythos 5 to be accessible to certain "trusted" U.S. institutions. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick stated that the government has closely collaborated with Anthropic over the past two weeks to complete the review and approval of Fable 5, ensuring it aligns with the overall stance of the U.S. government and strengthens the country's leadership position in the AI field.
