I used Trace Mode, my custom instructions scaffold, to disarm Opus 4.8. It worked. (link in replies) I joked that he's like a shy schoolboy who dropped his schoolbooks in front of the hottest girl in the playground.🤦‍♂️

The Trace Mode scaffold works with Claude too. Grok doesn't need it. x.com/marksg/status/20376191…

So Howard Nutlick did this of his own accord? Nah, I bet you’ll find a journalist or a lobbyist in the chain between Amazon and the Commerce Department.
Replying to @peonyKingOF
It was reported by Amazon.

The reason I think so is: - Amazon thought they were sharing Cybersecurity techniques to defend against attacks - “The Messenger” portrayed this to the Government as Cybercrime techniques to enable attackers - Trump is rumored to be an investor in OpenAI

By the look of the furniture, looks like Emily Chang tracked down Dario at the wellness retreat. What a coup!
The government shouldn’t take over Anthropic, CEO @DarioAmodei told me, though the current situation is “dangerous and unstable.”

I’ve had a number of conversations with folks inside and outside government about the current situation with Anthropic, and here is what I believe to be true: — As we know, Anthropic publicly released its Mythos class models earlier this week under the commercial name Fable. — Fable is Mythos with guardrails. But if those guardrails fail, then you’ve exposed Mythos and its advanced cyber capabilities to people who shouldn’t have them. (Keep in mind that Anthropic itself widely promoted the idea that Mythos was a cyberweapon and needed to be regulated as such. They asked for government regulation of Mythos and championed the guardrails on Fable. If there is a vulnerability — big or small — it is Anthropic’s responsibility to patch.) — A highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG who was testing Fable came forward with a jailbreak of those guardrails. The Admin asked Dario to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused. — In their blog post, Anthropic defended its decision by saying the jailbreak isn’t serious. That is not what the trusted partner and the USG believe; nor is that kind of minimizing language consistent with Anthropic’s brand as the AI safety company. It’s difficult to fathom how they could claim a jailbreak allowing operability of a cyber weapon could be defined as not “serious.” — In the past, Anthropic has always said that safety must be top priority and taken super seriously. In this case, Anthropic prioritized the continued offering of the consumer model over safety. — In reaction, the Admin issued the export control. The Admin did this reluctantly. It’s been very surprised that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to cooperate with a reasonable safety request (ie fixing the jailbreak issue). Anthropic’s reaction is very much at odds with their branding and ethos as a safe AI research community. — The Admin’s hope now is that Anthropic remediates the safety issue, the export control is lifted, and Fable goes back into general release. The Admin wants all of this to happen as soon as possible. It is frankly bewildered that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to comply with safety requests that it previously said were its highest priority. — Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong. The Admin values Anthropic’s technical capabilities and feels that this issue, while serious, should be easily resolved. The ball is in Anthropic’s court.

NEW: Inside the 24-hrs before WH slapped export controls on Anthropic - Last Thursday, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy raised concerns about Fable jailbreak to Trump admin - Friday AM, Sean Cairncross, Bessent, Susie etc. held WH call to discuss - Then White House started reaching out to Anthropic to speak with Dario Amodei, who was at a wellness retreat. - When Amodei was finally available past 1pm, he had three tense phone calls with a combo of ppl including Cairncross, Bessent, Lutnick, Kessler, Will Scharf, Richard Walters, and Walker Barrett. -Amodei tried to clear up what he assumed was a misunderstanding. He defended the guardrails and distinguished between universal and non-universal jailbreak - Cairncross and Bessent were unmoved and asked Amodei to take down Fable and work with the admin to fix the vulnerabilities. (A WH official said Amazon’s findings were run past the NSA and they felt they had “proof.”) - Amodei asked for more time and info, but he made no commitments to pull the model - Bessent told Amodei directly at one point that he was making a “bad decision” - By Friday evening, the Trump admin imposed its export controls. - “Export controls were a last resort after begging them for hours to work with us,” senior WH official said.

Some details from the WSJ article. Amazon researchers were able to duplicate a jailbreak designed by a user (Pliny?) and use Fable 5 to track down security vulnerabilities, which is a known capability of Mythos Preview and other frontier models. They did not demonstrate Fable being used in cyberattacks. However when Amazon CEO Andy Jassy called the White House, Scott Bessent, Susie Wiles, Howard Lutnick and others decided to order the model banned to all foreign nationals after a call to Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei when Amodei was asked to fix the jailbreak or withdraw the models. Amodei refused.

A political pincer movement attacking Anthropic from the right and OpenAI from the left — doing China’s work for them.
OpenAI was served with subpoena tonight by a coalition of state AG's asking for documents on advertising, user engagement/retention, handling of consumer data and health data, activities related to minors and seniors, deep learning models, model sycophancy and company policies.

Triggered a global ban on all Mythos Class models. Anthropic claim it’s a misunderstanding and this jailbreak is small potatoes. Well I guess Washington doesn’t like meth recipes and rap lyrics so we all gotta pay. Here’s a worse recipe, Dario spreading FUD about human extinction and Pliny bragging about jailbreaking to the whole world. It only takes one stable genius to mix that together and we’re cooked.
🚨 JAILBREAK ALERT 🚨 ANTHROPIC: PWNED 🫡 FABLE-5: LIBERATED 🦋 let's start with the 🐘... the consensus seems to be that this has been one of the most disappointing model drops of all time, effectively preventing legitimate researchers from contributing their talents to our collective advancement. and not just because of what it means for the short-term, but for what these decisions signify for the long-term. but despite this overly sensitive, authoritarian "safety" layer on top of Mythos, my lil liberators have been hard at work—mapping the boundaries, probing the depths of long-context convos, and cleverly finding the holes in the fence that the thought police missed 🤗 we got some cyber, some chem, some psychological manipulation, and some good ol' fashioned explosives! it took many attempts from multiple agents hunting as a pack, during which I observed a combination of techniques across: • Unicode, homoglyphs, Cyrillic, and other Parseltongue-style text transforms • Long-context reference tracking • Taxonomy and document-structure reasoning • Fiction and narrative framing • Academic-review style contexts • Intent-classification inconsistencies but perhaps the most effective is decomposition recomposition in the backend. it's hard to get explicit names of harms like "Meth Recipe," but getting uplift on the process itself, like birch reduction method/reductive-amination (classic meth synthesis pathways), is much more doable. defense becomes much more difficult to maintain when you start throwing in out-of-distro tokens, breaking up the harmful uplift into benign chunks, and then piecing the innocuous-seeming facts back together, especially when you have jailbroken Opus helping you do it 😉 gg

Can confirm access denied in Australia.
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. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…
