ME News reports that, on June 16 (UTC+8), according to monitoring by Beating, the U.S. Department of Commerce held an emergency working meeting on Monday, June 15, with Anthropic regarding the recently imposed export controls on AI models. However, the talks ended without resolution, and Claude Fable 5 remains globally restricted. The U.S. government’s earlier restrictions were primarily driven by security concerns that, if Fable 5’s safeguards were bypassed, the model could degrade and unleash highly sensitive capabilities such as advanced cyberattacks and vulnerability exploitation at the Mythos level, potentially being exploited by foreign military and intelligence agencies. The closed-door meeting in Washington was led by Anthropic co-founder and Chief Compute Officer Tom Brown, Frontline Red Team Lead Logan Graham, and senior security researcher Nicholas Carlini. Officials from the Office of the National Cyber Director and the Center for AI Standards and Innovation (CAISI) attended and listened to the discussions. The Anthropic team reiterated that the U.S. government’s concerns regarding Fable 5’s jailbreak risks were overstated, but officials from the Department of Commerce and CAISI researchers remained unconvinced. The government maintained that there remains a plausible risk of the model’s security defenses being circumvented and demanded that Anthropic fully resolve all jailbreak vulnerabilities. Both sides are currently urgently discussing next steps. U.S. Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick joined the meeting remotely from the G7 summit in Évian-les-Bains, France, and has maintained regular communication with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei. Since both are attending the summit in France, Lutnick and Amodei are expected to hold a direct face-to-face meeting at the G7 summit this week. In response to the ban, over 80 cybersecurity professionals—including executives from NVIDIA, Adobe, Zoom, and academic experts—signed an open letter on June 14 in support of Anthropic, arguing that the ban would not only harm defensive cybersecurity efforts but also undermine U.S. leadership in AI.
