Donald Trump: Anthropic is no longer considered a national security threat
Odaily Planet Daily News, US President Donald Trump stated that after meeting with Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei during the G7 summit, Anthropic is no longer considered a national security threat.
Previously, the two sides had disagreements over the severity of the "jailbreak" vulnerability in the Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 models. On June 12, the US Department of Commerce introduced export control measures, restricting access to related models for foreign technical personnel. Subsequently, the White House, the US Department of Commerce, and the Office of the National Cyber Director engaged in multiple rounds of communication with Anthropic regarding large model security standards and began establishing a technical framework to assess model vulnerability risks and the boundaries of government intervention.
Trump stated that Anthropic has actively cooperated with the rectification requirements and emphasized that the current primary task for the United States remains maintaining a competitive advantage over China in the field of artificial intelligence, and that it does not wish to limit the development of the domestic AI industry by shutting down or taking over companies. However, he also noted that if necessary, the use of emergency executive powers, such as the Defense Production Act, for regulation would not be ruled out.
As of June 2026, Anthropic's annualized recurring revenue has reached $47 billion, with a valuation of approximately $965 billion, and it has submitted an application for an initial public offering. (Axios)
