Anthropic championed Mythos as a cyberweapon requiring strict guardrails, then refused to patch a confirmed jailbreak when the government asked — that's a stunning betrayal of its own safety-first brand. National security has to outrank revenue cycles and pre-IPO valuations, full stop. The export control was a reluctant but necessary response to Anthropic's refusal to cooperate with a reasonable safety request — it is not a dealbreaker with other global leaders, who continue to mutually benefit from close diplomacy with Trump.
