🚨 Anthropic Dispatches Top Engineers to White House After Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 Disabled
Anthropic sent senior staff to the White House on Sunday after the Trump Administration’s export control order forced the company to disable Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 for every user worldwide.
The Mythos-class models were taken offline the previous Friday following officials’ frustration that Anthropic had not engaged seriously on a jailbreak complaint.
While More than 100 cybersecurity executives and researchers from Adobe, Zoom, Nvidia, Vercel, Stanford HAI and others signed an open letter urging the U.S. government to lift the export controls on Anthropic’s Fable 5
💡 Nadella Warns a Handful of AI Providers Could Grab Most Economic Value
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella cautioned that frontier models alone will not determine winners — companies that build their own learning loops around proprietary data, workflows and judgment will capture real value.
He split company assets into human capital (people’s knowledge and ingenuity) and token capital (owned AI systems that compound expertise over time).
Firms that simply rent the best model risk ceding control and seeing their industry expertise hollowed out, repeating the mistakes of globalisation-era outsourcing.
⚠️ China Vows Payback After Pentagon Blacklists Alibaba, Baidu, BYD and NIO
Beijing warned of retaliation after the Pentagon added major Chinese tech and auto firms — including Alibaba, Baidu, BYD and NIO — to its annual Section 1260H list of companies tied to China’s military. The update also named solar manufacturers and serves as an investor warning rather than an immediate export or technology ban.
Alibaba stated there is “no basis” for its inclusion and noted the list does not automatically restrict U.S. customers or exports like the Commerce Department’s Entity List.
📺 Fox Makes $22 Billion Play for Roku to Control Your TV and Ads
Fox is acquiring Roku in a $22 billion deal that gives the media company direct access to more than 100 million U.S. households and powerful ad targeting capabilities across streaming. The combined entity would become the third-largest U.S. television player by viewership, with Fox shareholders owning roughly 73%.
The transaction, expected to close in the first half of 2027, is funded partly through new debt and is projected to generate about $400 million in annual cost savings.
