If US govt blocked Fable that’s like saying “we won’t allow any better models from here on out”
AI tech bro investors should be concerned.
I don’t see how this can possibly stand.
I expect there to be some sort of compliance review and rerelease of Fable.
Otherwise the whole industry stops here, and I don’t think anyone will accept that.

The industry doesn't stop it just moves to China. You can't ban AI you can only ban yourself from using it.
It will be re-released within a matter of days, and Anthropic will benefit greatly at IPO. So dangerous and successful it needs daddy to regulate it, so invest now, and make sure that market cap is sky high.
That basically kills the API model. I had it, over Cursor. And then, I suddenly didn't have it.
Also an issue that they cut off NATO and EU and Five Eyes allies. 😏 Anything you purchase from USA can just get cut off, on a whim.
Why pay trillions for something that we will all soon get for free or that only the US government gets to use?
That's the point of begging for "government regulation" to begin with: to drive valuation. Anthropic and OpenAI both do this, constantly, and have for at least three years. "This model may be tooooo dangerous to release," OpenAI said... about GPT2.
It's brilliant marketing. Fable will be back within a few days, at least, and everyone will be intrigued with the model so dangerous the government had to put constraints on it. And investors will be lining up.
The Anthropic IPO is estimated to drop in the Fall. The cash-in is coming for all involved.
That we'll all be using more powerful models within a couple of years for free is also true, but the investors neither know nor care about that.
You're absolutely right (like Claude says every time it screws up). And of course Trump will reverse that decision in 3, 2, 1...
Blatant market manipulation, IMO.
White House's business as usual. Same as Hormuz and everything else.
Someone just needs to put the source on a shirt and wear it in an airport.
But it's a lot longer than the RSA algorithm.
We're gonna need a really fat guy...
