If your Fable 5 access just got snatched from you, I have a fable 2050 you might enjoy
Anthropic Verified account @AnthropicAI Jun 13
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.

Access to all other Claude models is not affected.

We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

The premise of Infinite Wisdom, my Artificial Wisdom sequel out in a few weeks, is: what exactly would an AI do if it was in charge not of an authoritarian regime like below, but the world, with a mandate to fix the climate? It would be every bit as relentless as this example.

This. This is why AI can be terrifying.

Because if it was in charge of an authoritarian regime, it shows how monstrous, decisive, determined, and unstoppable it would be.

And I say this as someone who really wants to see lower crime.

Question is, how do we stop it flooding back again?

Apparently Russian servers have been hit by a Ukrainian strike and immediately massive online hard right chatter has collapsed.

This particular chatter was in support of Germany’s AFD, their equivalent to Reform, but similar patterns are being seen in hard right movements everywhere, including the UK.

If anyone needed anymore evidence that Russia are driving a massive wave of hard right propaganda in Europe, this is it.

So, all you “patriots” - you’ve been duped by Russia, and you are about as far from patriotic as anyone can be. You are easily brainwashed though. This is how propaganda works.

Yet again, Obama has the best take

🚨 OBAMA ON AI: "If we are thinking about AI just in terms of how do we cure cancer or get better energy, you can do that without having agentic AI and having it just roaming free in the internet. The reason you are doing that is because you have to market a product that people will pay money for.

That’s a misalignment between what our society needs and the commercial imperatives that these companies are facing, not because necessarily they’re trying to do bad things, but because they’ve got to justify these valuations.

So, that’s one more reason why it is really important for us to have a competent government and a serious bipartisan conversation around this issue, and we have to do it fast. And I would encourage voters to pay attention to this. If somebody does not have a serious plan for how to deal with this, then they’re not meeting the moment, and you should probably look for somebody else."
