Most corrupt US administration in history, by a long shot.

Wonder how many US-based early-stage startups are using Opus to research incorporating and moving overseas at this very moment.

EU isn’t tenable, UK is iffy. Australia? Thailand? Who wants to be innovation-friendly?

I'm surprised that (all) these models haven't been export controlled already. Relatively benign software like VMware is export controlled or even hobbyist radio projects have gotten hairy with ITAR.

But a model that can provide general information, research, or source code for most modern technology?

It is really unusual that this is the first notice of this

> We have reviewed the report and validated that the level of capability displayed there is widely available from other models (including OpenAI’s GPT-5.5), and is used every day by the defenders who keep systems safe. We will share more details over the next 24 hours. So much for all of the rhetoric about Mythos supposedly far surpassing GPT 5.5 (edit: in cybersecurity, in particular). Of course, the AISI benchmarks…

They aren't saying that other models have the same overall level of capability. They are saying that the specific capability that the US Government tested is also available in other models.

Well maybe now they will learn that they shouldn’t overhype the capabilities of their models.

Sadly, I suspect this will be the best piece of marketing they could ever hope for. "It's so advanced the government made us add extra security* to stop hackers!"

*(ask it in a more stern voice)

Nice drama, LOL!! I still remember ChatGPT is very dangerous to be released a long time back. World is fine now!!

Is it fine though? We’re definitely seeing some huge negative impacts from AI use. Of course some positive ones as well, but the point is that they were right to be concerned.
