On June 15, 2026, host Jim Love reports that Anthropic shut down its Mythos-5 and Fable-5 models worldwide after a US national security directive demanded removal of access for all foreign nationals on 90 minutes' notice; Anthropic said it couldn't practically guarantee compliance and disputed the jailbreak rationale while noting extensive safety testing. The shutdown intensified global digital sovereignty debates, with Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney citing the need for sovereign AI and Europe pursuing moves away from US platforms, including open-source office and sovereign cloud efforts.
