Summary
The US government lifted its block on Anthropic's Claude Mythos 5, allowing access to over 100 trusted US organizations after two weeks of negotiations triggered by Amazon's jailbreak warnings. The weaker Fable 5 model remains unreleased, while Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick cited 'significant progress' in establishing safeguards. This decision coincides with OpenAI's limited release of GPT-5.6 to approved partners, marking a new era of government-controlled frontier AI model distribution.
