Trump Says Anthropic No Longer Viewed as National Security Threat After AI Access Restrictions
Former U.S. President Donald Trump recently stated that he no longer views AI company Anthropic as a national security threat, a shift from concerns expressed just a week earlier. This change followed Anthropic's prompt response to a government directive restricting foreign access to its advanced AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5. Trump acknowledged the company's responsible handling and met with CEO Dario Amodei at the G7 summit. While Trump did not rule out using emergency powers if necessary, he indicated the situation has stabilized after engagement with Anthropic's leadership.
