Odaily reported that after the White House issued an emergency takedown order for the Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models, it sparked concerns among Anthropic employees regarding the company's IPO plans. Reports indicate that management faced pressure to respond after receiving a 90-minute deadline for the takedown order. Some employees were confused about the shifting justifications for the removal, which alternated between "national security" and "security vulnerabilities," and worried that related regulatory pressure could impact the company's listing process.
