Artificial intelligence company Anthropic says it has been ordered by the US government to suspend foreigners' access to some of its advanced AI models.

The US government restrictions cite national security concerns over the AI models Fable 5 and Mythos 5.

The news comes a day after a coalition of US state attorneys-general opened a sweeping investigation into OpenAI.

Artificial intelligence company Anthropic has taken its most advanced AI models offline after it was ordered by the US government to suspend access for all foreign nationals.

Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI suspended over security fears

Anthropic has suspended its powerful new AI model after US authorities raised security concerns just days following its public release.

In a statement published on its website, Anthropic said it was ordered to suspend foreign nationals from using Claude Fable 5, a program that the company self-described as "too powerful".

"The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance," the company wrote.

Anthropic and the Trump administration are involved in a separate ongoing lawsuit over an order to stop government agencies using the company's AI tools. The BBC has approached the US Department of Commerce for comment.

Anthropic disables access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 to comply with government directive

Anthropic on Friday announced it's disabled access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 artificial intelligence models to comply with an export control directive from the U.S. government that cited "national security authorities."

The company said it received an order at 5:21 p.m. ET, instructing it to suspend all access to the models "by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees."

Anthropic abruptly disabled the models for all of its customers in order to ensure compliance, but said all of its other models will not be affected.

The unexpected move comes just days after Anthropic announced Fable 5 and Mythos 5, two powerful models that the company touted as state-of-the-art across a number of different industry benchmarks. Fable 5, in particular, marked the first time that Anthropic released such an advanced offering to the public, thanks to new safeguards that block responses in specific high-risk areas.
