Anthropic says US restored Mythos 5 access: but here's why the ban the world protested remains

The US government has reversed a ban on the advanced AI model Mythos 5 by Anthropic, allowing limited access to around 100 organizations focused on critical infrastructure. However, the general public still doesn't have access to the public-facing version, Fable 5, and the export ban remains in place, sparking concerns about selective access to cutting-edge AI technology. Critics, including prominent figures like Sam Altman, argue that this selective rollout sets a worrying precedent, similar to how other companies like OpenAI manage access to their advanced AI models. This situation underscores the ongoing debate about how to regulate and distribute powerful AI technologies responsibly.
