The White House reportedly has suspicions that a China-linked group had access to Anthropic’s powerful AI.
According to a new report from Semafor, the White House’s decision to impose export restrictions on Anthropic’s Mythos was driven in part by fears that it had been accessed by a group linked to China. If the Chinese government actually had access to Mythos 5 or Fable 5, it would present a serious national security risk. The government could also attempt to reverse engineer the model through distillation, a method in which a “student” AI is trained on a more advanced model to replicate its behavior.
