THE HOT STORY

Anthropic allowed to release Mythos AI to 'trusted' U.S. organizations

The U.S. government has given Anthropic the green light to put its Claude Mythos 5 artificial intelligence model back into the hands of 100 or so “trusted partners”, including many Fortune 500 companies and U.S. government departments. The Trump administration had been concerned that such powerful AI systems could be misused by military intelligence users in China, Russia or other countries. Reuters notes that the administration's vetting ​of which companies can gain access to Mythos has been widely criticized. "No one knows how these companies are picked and why everyone else is excluded," observed John Coleman, legislative counsel for the Philadelphia-based nonpartisan free speech organization, the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression. "This is putting too much power in the hands of the government. There's little transparency and it raises questions about the rule of law."
