An Amazon security investigation reportedly led to the White House’s Anthropic Fable ban

According to Wall Street Journalthe export management guidelines that led to Anthropic cut the opportunity to Myth 5 and Mythos 5 was initiated in part by cybersecurity research from Amazon and discussions between CEO Andy Jassy and the White House. According to the report, the paper from Amazon says that, through several statements, it managed to find Legend 5 providing information that can be used in cyber attacks. Amazon has not yet responded to a request for comment.

As soon as Jassy shared the company’s findings with the government, it requested a ban on its use by foreign nationals. Adding to the issue is the fact that many of the Anthropic researchers are from other countries, meaning they have not been allowed access to their products.

In a wordsAnthropic disputed the government’s claim that the case was a “prison disturbance.” It said many of the same problems can be found using other publicly available versions, including GPT 5.5. Some securities analysts seem to support the company’s interpretation. Katie Moussuris, founder and CEO of LutaSecurity posted on BlueSky that, “I saw the paper. The former head of the Commerce Department Kate Koren considered for WSJ that the White House doesn’t like Anthropic may have influenced the decision.

Anthropic and the Trump administration have become on the contrary about one time because of the company’s refusal to allow its AI to be used for mass surveillance of Americans or for the use of autonomous threat weapons. In February, Trump told federal agencies that stop using Anthropic’s AI. And just hours later, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth designated the company as a Supply chain risk.

The government and the company seemed to have it produced they fix itand the two worked together expand opportunities in Mythos. However, now the two seem to be at loggerheads again.
