How Anthropic's warnings about AI risks may have led to a US export ban

According to FT analysis, Anthropic used risk-related words five times per 1,000 in 2026, compared to OpenAI's 0.6 per 1,000, as critics argue the company's warnings helped trigger a US ban on foreign access to its new models. Washington last week barred foreign nationals from using Anthropic's latest AI systems, Mythos and Fable. Some technologists blame the decision on Anthropic's repeated emphasis on AI dangers, particularly regarding Mythos.
