Trump Administration Preparing to Lift Restrictions on Anthropic's Fable 5 Model After 15-Day Offline Period

According to Axios, on June 27, the Trump administration is preparing to allow Anthropic to restore access to its Fable 5 model, which has been offline for 15 days due to government security concerns. Insiders expect restrictions could be lifted as early as next week, with negotiations continuing over the weekend.

On Friday, the U.S. Commerce Department permitted Anthropic to resume access to its Mythos 5 model for a limited number of trusted users. Commerce Secretary Lutnick said in a letter to Anthropic that the company has collaborated with the U.S. government to address risks related to both models, and these efforts have achieved significant progress.
