"Anthropic's flagship model Fable 5 has been offline for 15 days because US government pulled it. Now Axios reports it may be back within days. Historians will look back and say this period in time marked the period towards the middle or the endgame of recursive self-improvement."
The US government forced Anthropic to take its most advanced model Fable-5 offline for national security reasons, marking the first major AI export control enforcement.
