    Next time someone tells you this is the party of free market and small government, I guess you just laugh now?
  • andrewchambers
    This seems like it will have pretty huge negative affects on startups needing to compete with 'trusted partners'

    Imposing a licensing system on models for limiting domestic use should require an act of congress but I mean obviously we're well past that red line.

    I’m not sure what the US government is trying to do. At first it seems like they are just trying to stifle some company that said no. Now they are just doing free publicity. It’s like never before have I wanted to try something out as much as this.They’re in effect saying “nothing else is as powerful as what Anthropic put out”. Even though that might not really be the case it’s what it sounds like.

    I understand why Anthropic might not want to fight this particular one in court, because they're trying to convince the administration to let them move forward.But would another company who is not on the trusted partner list and has less to lose taking on the admin have standing to sue here? On the basis of the export control being illegal and this putting their business at a disadvantage vs. competitors with access

    To the surprise of absolutely nobody following the news

    This appears to be only for Mythos 5 access, NOT Fable 5.

    It feels the U.S. is moving closer to a textbook definition of crony capitalism. Really sad but unsurprising with the current administration.

    And we get the news the same time OpenAI releases 5.6. What a coincidence?
  • SwellJoe
    "I have determined that appropriate safeguards are in place to permit certain trusted partners to access the Claude Mythos 5 Model"I assume "trusted partners" means, "companies that have bribed Trump an appropriate amount". A few million for the inauguration, a few million for the ballroom, a few million on a movie about Melania, the don wants a taste.

    Congrats sama. Such a great sophisticated 5d chess move.
  • outside1234
    Is there a list of the partners that get access? That should be public, right?
  • sscaryterry
    I thought Fable was a "safer" Mythos?!

    This is what “stacking the deck” looks like
  • nozzlegear
    Wowee, just happens to be on the same day of OpenAI's Sol announcement. How convenient for Dario and Anthropic!
  • pertymcpert
    Why would they allow Mythos but not Fable? Fable is the one with more guardrails.

    Land of the free, land of the brave. Free market. Freedom of speech. Market economy.These words don’t mean what they use to anymore. Newspeak is in full swing. Words still sound the same and are written in the same way but now mean something completely different. If Mao and Stalin were alive, they would be nodding approvingly.

    * to some US companies.Asterisk the size of a Mac truck.Also this administration having say over who gets access to what AI is just so much more grift corruption and picking your favorites / destroying others, for these incdecent undemocratic in American grifters who've seized our state.
  • zuzululu
    should see 5.6 any day now

    Who needs freedom of speech anyway? I'm just glad the trump admin is looking out for by best interests. /s
  • paxys
    TL;DR - OpenAI and Anthropic are both allowed to ship their most powerful models to a small number of companies pre-approved by Trump.

    Why post a content free link to Twitter for this?
