The most advanced artificial intelligence model was switched off for everyone who is not American. What used to belong to political fiction became fact on a single Friday evening, and it is a signal that neither Europe nor China has any right to ignore. On June 12, 2026, the United States government, citing national security, ordered the company Anthropic to cut off access to its most powerful models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, for anyone who is not a US citizen, inside the country and beyond it. The company could not carry out this order directly, because a significant part of its own staff are not Americans. The only way to comply with the directive was to disable the model for everyone. Fable 5 stopped working two days after its release. We cannot wait for an American AGI for everyone, because it will not come. They will not make it available to the world. They will make it available to their own citizens, and perhaps to a few satellites. The rest will get access to stripped-down, supervised, severed versions, or nothing at all. | ||
