When AI Access Gets Switched Off

In today’s episode of AI in Flow, Claire and Peter break down a major shock to the AI ecosystem: Anthropic suspending access to its newest models worldwide after a US export-control order—signalling that restrictions can now target the model itself, not just chips or hardware. They unpack what this means for businesses building on frontier providers, from dependency mapping and fallback plans to open-source or on‑prem options. Plus: Nvidia’s push to sell Vera Arm-based server CPUs to Chinese cloud customers amid ongoing GPU export limits, KPMG retracting an agentic AI report over AI-generated inaccuracies, the Financial Stability Board’s new guidance on responsible AI in finance, growing political backlash to AI data-centre buildouts, and why US corporate AI hiring is skewing senior—raising concerns about the long-term talent pipeline.About Six & FlowSix & Flow is a digital transformation consultancy helping businesses adapt, grow, and thrive in a fast-changing world.
