# Fable is coming back: Federal government lifts export controls on Anthropic AI model

**[The New Stack](https://daily.dev/sources/newstack)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

The U.S. Commerce Department has lifted export controls on Anthropic's Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models, which were imposed on June 12 following a jailbreak incident. In exchange, Anthropic agreed to proactively detect and address security risks, collaborate with the government on protocols for future model releases, and report any malicious activity. The controls had forced Anthropic to shut down access to Fable for all users globally. The episode unfolded against a backdrop of existing tensions between Anthropic and the Trump administration, stemming from Anthropic's refusal to remove contractual safeguards against mass domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons for the Department of War. The relationship has since thawed following meetings between Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Anthropic representatives.
