<p>shush, lol<p>edit: And... it's gone<p>> There's an issue with the selected model (claude-fable-5). It may not exist or you may not have access to it. Run /model to pick a different model.</p>

<p>> The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. <i>The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.</i><p>How will this be implemented/verified? Also, does this mean that American citizens abroad will still be able to access it?</p>

<p>I think we mostly agree. The one point of contention is likely just due to a lack of clarity on my part.<p>By over-eager PM, I didn't mean someone being malicious, just moving too fast to think about how some logging they set up <i>might</i> have negative effects for my clients way down the line.<p>Then months later, some other person finding a store of novel data, and being like... that looks nice... not gonna ask any questions/look a gift horse in the mouth... woohoo AGI!<p>On the far darker side, while I am a fan of the team at Anthropic: good intentions and all, they had to pay a $1.5B settlement for knowingly ingesting copyrighted books. That was just the cost of doing business. They did that, and now they are a trillion dollar company.<p><a href="https://www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/" rel="nofollow">https://www.anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com/</a></p>

<p>No worries :) What this showed me is the power/velocity/inertia that Anthropic can hold over the 3rd party providers. Like, they should have pushed back on this, as it must have been clear to the 3rd parties that this change was a big deal to their customers... and yet, it went how Anthropic wanted it to go.</p>

<p>Oh man, thanks for taking the time to reply. I feel a bit better now, lol.<p>If you read my rant linked previously, yeah... we are on the same page. As another user pointed out in that thread, the issue here is that even on Bedrock and Azure Foundry, now with Fable 5, Anthropic inserts themselves as an additional data subprocessor that we would have to consider and certainly disclose, correct?<p>That kind of destroys the whole point of using Bedrock/Azure for the model, doesn't it?</p>

<p>Exactly. See my downthread comment. That is my proposal as well. I understand that Anthropic and Azure/AWS have different priorities, so even if Anthropic forward-deployed/embedded/rotated their own people into those teams to keep them honest, as long as user data didn't flow back... I would be fine with that.</p>

<p>I appreciate the reply. Could you please help me understand what you mean by "You should never use any of the frontier models?"<p>Does that mean the latest model, hosted by the lab, Bedrock, or Azure Foundry? Or, do you mean only use self-hosted models, or what did you mean by that? I would really love to learn what others are doing. I felt like my trust story was solid enough, prior to all this. I have been deploying and integrating Claude and Sonnet (latest 4.x-2), on Azure, as my client base has MS contract trust, for better or worse, and Anthropic models have been making my products amazing.<p>To see my other thoughts on this cluster f, please see: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48488781">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48488781</a></p>

<p>Yeah sure, maybe, but prior to this, the model creator had no observability into any of this on Azure/Bedrock, right? Now they do. That's one over-eager PM or bug away from training on my clients' data.<p>If I trusted an "AGI-pilled" company, I would have never even bothered with Azure/Bedrock to begin with, and gone straight to the source.<p>AGI-pilled means that you think you are building god. They might actually be doing that, but in either case, I cannot trust people in that state of mind with my clients' most valued proprietary data.<p>AGI is their golden goose, whereas enterprise trust is AWS/Azure's golden goose.<p>edit after upvotes: I get it from the Anthropic POV. I am not an Anthropic hater, in-fact I am a huge fan. People trying to distil their models would likely use Azure/Bedrock for that purpose, as the lack of Anthropic observability would be ideal for that. Still, this all sucks for anyone building an honest business with enterprise customers.<p>There has to be a better way. Maybe deploy the automated observability tools to the Azure/Bedrock teams... and have them flag and investigate accounts? If Anthropic can do this, so can Azure Foundry/Bedrock teams, right? Maybe even forward deployed Anthropic folks would be ideal to keep them honest, as long as the raw data does not flow back.</p>

<p>The other major thing is almost as bad, and actually maybe even worse for trust of AI features in b2b apps:<p>> Anthropic requires 30 day data retention for Fable and Mythos<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48464258">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48464258</a><p>I used to be able to tell my enterprise customers something simple, that I really believe: "We use Anthropic models via Bedrock/Azure, therefore we are guaranteed that your data will not be used for training models."<p>That simple blanket statement is no longer true. Also, most normal people/customers only read headlines, and this is a huge story. From my point of view, as someone deploying LLMs in my apps, trust comms with my clients just got set back two years.</p>

<p>To be very clear, I ain't that guy. So, if this is true, I might be somewhat easy pickins myself. But, well known trust is a huge part of our org's value prop with our clients. God this sucks.</p>

<p>Yeah, due to this policy, I cannot and will not use Fable in the products we sell, but damn it's good in Claude Code. Really gonna miss it as the daily after June 22nd.<p>edit: I should add that it really sucks how this muddies the waters for comms. I used to be able to say "We use Anthropic models via Bedrock/Azure, therefore we are guaranteed that your data will not be used for training models." That was simple comms. Now, it's not that simple.<p>This really, really sucks. Not just for us, but for all AI features in b2b apps. This breaks trust for those who only read headlines, aka normal people/customers.</p>

<p>The thing is, just like employees at non-AI forward companies "cheat," by using their personal Claude.ai and ChatGPT.com, so will big companies, or at least some teams/departments regarding this Fable issue. LLMs might be new, but it is known that this kind of behavior is classic.<p>As you said, if they don't, they will be easy pickings.</p>
