self-inflicted.
this would have NEVER happened if anthropic didn't make such a big deal about mythos being dangerous.
Jun 13
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.

If you’re unwilling to disrupt yourself, I promise someone smaller, hungrier, and quicker is working hard to disrupt you.

We created a fake restaurant on Glovo and Chowdeck using a made-up tax ID, a false address, and photos stolen from a real Lagos restaurant.
Within a few weeks, we had a device, completed onboarding training, and made a sale. techpoint.africa/insight/inv…

@ijbguy cooked with this paragraph:
“The performance of insight is about sounding informed rather than being informed. It favors confidence over accuracy and speed over depth. It shows up quickly, speaks definitively, and rarely revises itself. Its primary audience isn’t the truth, but the crowd.”
It’s okay not to have an opinion on everything in this town square we call Twitter (or X, depending on the day).
This article is worth reading from the man in the actual arena.
