Anthropic staff to meet White House officials next week, Axios reports

June 14 (Reuters) - Senior ‌Anthropic technical ​staff ​are in Washington to meet with White House officials to try ‌resolving a dispute that has taken the ⁠company's most advanced AI models offline, Axios reported ‌on Sunday, citing a ‌source close to the company.

Reuters could not immediately verify the report. Anthropic and the White ​House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Anthropic's technical staff have held ⁠virtual meetings with White House officials since the Trump administration's ​initial outreach on Friday, the report said.

The Trump administration ordered Anthropic to ​block any foreign nationals, whether ‌inside or outside the U.S., from using its latest models, Fable ⁠5 and Mythos 5, the company said. In response, Anthropic said it would disable access ⁠to the models globally.

The San Francisco-based AI startup, which ​has confidentially filed for a U.S. initial public offering, had previously warned about the hacking capabilities of ‌its Mythos model and held it back from wide release.

Earlier this ‌week, Anthropic rolled out a public version, ⁠called Fable, that ‌included what it ​described as cybersecurity safeguards.
