Anthropic model access block gives impetus to sovereign AI debate

A debate in India’s technology industry over reducing reliance on foreign AI has intensified after Anthropic blocked access to its latest AI models, Mythos and Fable, following a U.S. government directive, TechCrunch reported. Anthropic said it would halt access to the Fable5 and Mythos5 models for foreign nationals. Indian founders and executives said the move highlights inequality in access to top AI and renewed calls for sovereign AI and open-source alternatives.
