Insiders expect the administration's limits ​on Fable 5 could be lifted as soon as this coming week, the report said.

Conversations between the parties are expected to ​continue over the weekend, and Anthropic expects to ​restore Fable access soon, the report added, citing a second source.

Anthropic ‌said ⁠on Friday that the U.S. government has allowed it to release its Claude Mythos 5 artificial intelligence model to some "trusted" U.S. organizations, partially reversing an order two weeks ​ago to suspend ​access over ⁠national security risks.

The government is also moving towards allowing Anthropic to release ​Fable soon, although a timeline is unclear, ​a source ⁠familiar with the directive told Reuters.

Both Fable 5 and Mythos use the same underlying AI model, but Fable ⁠5 ​is designed to be widely available ​for public use whereas some safeguards are lifted for Mythos.
