- Anthropic disabled both models globally, affecting hundreds of millions of users, due to the inability to selectively comply with the order.
- The directive affects any foreign national, including Anthropic’s own foreign employees, forcing a complete shutdown of these AI systems.
- Defillama is tracking pre-IPO perpetual futures for Anthropic among other companies, highlighting the impact on crypto markets.
The US government’s directive led to a worldwide suspension of Anthropic’s Fable and Mythos models due to national security concerns involving foreign nationals’ access. This move has significant implications for crypto traders who are invested in pre-IPO markets like those tracked by Defillama.
