Odaily Planet Daily report: David Sacks, Co-Chair of the U.S. President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, published a response addressing regulatory concerns sparked by Anthropic’s “security controversy.” He stated that he has engaged in discussions with multiple parties regarding the current situation with Anthropic and concluded that the core issue lies in the security concerns surrounding its newly released model, “Fable” (the commercial version of the Mythos-class models). Although Anthropic publicly characterized the vulnerability as “not severe,” both the U.S. government and testing parties disagree with this assessment, arguing that it is sufficient to compromise model security and potentially involves risks related to “cyberweapon operability.”
David Sacks further criticized Anthropic for previously emphasizing "safety first," but now favoring the continued availability of the consumer version over prioritizing the resolution of security issues. He stated that this matter should not be conflated with previous defense or regulatory disputes, and noted that the U.S. government still recognizes Anthropic’s technical capabilities, adding that the issue "could be resolved quickly, and the initiative lies with Anthropic."
