Not universal but I have observed a lot of celebration that the White House has chosen to begin exercising its previously only hypothetical regulatory muscle by export controlling Mythos/Fable. Mainly the feeling is there has been a ”win“ coming from the fact that now there is a real life example of the government exerting broad unilateral control over the most powerful AI lab in the country in cold blood (meaning not following massive public outcry after a catastrophic warning shot). I’m not willing to accept this is a win yet: this really is round one of this particular battle and there’s probably 5 or 6 more turns before the odds on who will win (between USG and Ant) really settle down. Anthropic has a lot of available levers to pull on wrt the economy right now, something that the current admin is going to be particularly sensitive about until at least 2028, and is specifically at this moment busy putting fires out on other parts of the ship. I am not expecting Anthropic to continue to accept getting punched in the face, and I expect they will now feel they have to respond by either turning on the government at the first opportunity they feel they have the hard power necessary to win, or begin scheming so as to avoid being the first lab to be criminalized/appropriated (it’s probably obvious to them that they are going to be the guinea pig should the government ever seriously consider it). Biggest win that has actually been achieved at this point is that the government has chosen to control the lab using an ITAR type framework, which is on the more serious end of the regulation spectrum when it comes to the government actually being effective.
