The US has decided to ban foreigners from using cutting-edge AI technology. The Donald Trump government has ordered AI safety and research firm Anthropic to do so. It has been said that no foreign national, including Indians, except American citizens, will have access to Anthropic’s cutting-edge and powerful AI technology. (US Anthropic Ban for Foreigners). Recently, Anthropic brought forward its two new AI models, Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5. The response around the two sophisticated and powerful AI models was overwhelming all over the world. But suddenly, there was a problem in accessing the two AI models all over the world. After this, Anthropic came forward to clarify. It was said that the two AI models have been ‘disabled’ in other countries of the world on the orders of the American government due to national security issues. (laude Fable 5-Mythos 5).
But Anthropic has acknowledged that such restrictions are unreasonable. But they have no choice but to comply with the US government’s orders. The organization also said that the fight will continue to make it accessible to everyone again. However, this incident is causing growing unease in the international community. Because until now, there were no restrictions on AI as announced. The only restrictions that were there were on the chips and hardware by which AI systems are built and operated. This is the first time that any country has imposed restrictions on access to AI software. Therefore, experts believe that this decision by America is going to be a turning point in the world of machine intelligence.
