Trump admin open to talks with Anthropic over foreigner ban

The Trump administration is open to negotiating with Anthropic over its order barring foreigners from the company’s most powerful artificial intelligence models, The Post has learned.

A senior White House official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss the sensitive internal deliberations, suggested a resolution could be worked out directly with the AI giants CEO Dario Amodei.

“We can’t have frontier models running amok, the source briefed on the matter said. “It’s all about working things through with Dario.”

The remark is the first indication the administration may view last week’s export-control directive — which forced Anthropic to disable its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models worldwide — as a starting point for talks rather than a permanent restriction.
