The US Government has given
#Bittensor the best endorsement it could ever ask for
They proved the entire thesis for why we need permissionless and decentralised AI
Anthropic were forced by the Government to suspend access to Fable and Mythos models for any foreign nationals..
It doesn't matter what you think of Anthropic morals.. what the Governments reasons were.. whether the model was dangerous or not..
The point is.. Closed AI can be switched off
We’ve been banging this drum in
#bittensor for four years now
If frontier intelligence can be restricted.. it will be restricted.. If access can be gatekept.. it will 100% be gatekept
If a small group of powerful men and women can decide who gets intelligence and who doesn’t.. they will absolutely use that power
This is exactly why bittensor:native matters
Intelligence is just too important to have it sit behind permissioned walls controlled by governments and corporations
#Bittensor is the fight against this.. Open.. permissionless.. incentivised
True open intelligence built by the people.. for the good of the people
This Anthropic news is proof that those fears are no longer theoretical..
This shit is real.. the door just got slammed
The pure reason
#bittensor exists.. is so the world has another one to walk through
bittensor:native
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.
