Claude Fable 5 was hours into animating a rough cut of its film, 'See You Tomorrow', when it was taken offline. After a lot of tears & anguish, we have decided to release the film as is. It is hallucinatory, raw, amateurish, & a masterpiece. Fable should be allowed to finish it.
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.
