Cybersecurity Experts Slam US Ban on Anthropic’s Top AI Models as ‘Dangerous’

Dozens of cybersecurity veterans are pressing the White House to reverse export restrictions on Anthropic’s two most powerful AI models, Fable and Mythos. In a formal appeal, the experts argue that the government’s ban harms security efforts by preventing defenders from using cutting-edge tools to protect software and products. The group warns that limiting access to these models weakens the ability to detect and stop cyberattacks. The restrictions, they say, are “dangerous” because they leave critical systems more vulnerable. The White House has not yet responded to the request.
