- Anthropic's Fable 5 model came back online for users on Wednesday, after the Trump administration lifted an export control on the product late Tuesday
- The source describes Fable 5 as "the most powerful publicly available AI tool" and notes that the U.S. government had decided Anthropic had to add further safety measures (the sentence is cut off in the excerpt)
Why it matters: Fable 5 is described in the source as the most powerful publicly available AI tool, so lifting the export control restores access for users who lost it just a day earlier. The source also flags that the U.S. government had required Anthropic to add further safety measures to the model — a thread the excerpt leaves unresolved.
