💼 Anthropic Restricts Access to New Models for Foreigners

By order of the US government, Anthropic has suspended access to its new Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for all foreign citizens. This decision has sparked intense debate in India regarding the necessity of creating "sovereign AI" to reduce geopolitical dependency.

🌍 The incident demonstrates that access to advanced LLMs can become a tool of geopolitical pressure, similar to the SWIFT system, forcing countries to develop their own models and open-source software.

👤 The technology stack and access to tools are now dependent on citizenship, which is changing the strategy of global AI teams and stimulating a shift toward open-source solutions.
