This G7 summit highlights that cooperation between trusted partners must come first, especially against a backdrop of emerging, transformative technologies. France may soon follow the U.K. in legislating new social media restrictions, while follow-on visits are being coordinated between multiple members. Yet, the U.S. government's export control on Anthropic's Fable 5 tars all foreign interests. Trump must put aside his isolationist policies to work in harmony with international leaders and strengthen collective resilience against global threats.
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. The export control was a 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.
