G7 demands guaranteed US AI access after Trump blocks Anthropic
trump blocked anthropic's mythos 5 and fable 5 exports on national security grounds, sparking fears at the g7 summit that the us holds a 'kill switch' on foreign economies.
g7 leaders, including president macron and prime minister modi, warned that us control over ai infrastructure poses a sovereignty risk after the trump administration abruptly blocked anthropic's exports of mythos 5 and fable 5 models. the block, prompted by an amazon security report, highlights a growing dilemma where nations rely on us models for critical infrastructure but face sudden revocation of access. leaders discussed a 'trusted partners' scheme to bypass restrictions, but uncertainty remains for companies building products on volatile us foundations. this signals a shift toward 'digital sovereignty' strategies where non-us nations may seek alternatives to american big tech to ensure resilience.
