IAPP Article – The Anthropic episode: Probably a security challenge in need of governance, certainly not Europe’s ‘kill switch’

The International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP) recently published an article by Prof. Theodore Christakis about the discourse among European policymakers in response to Anthropic’s decision to block foreign nationals’ access to two of its latest models.

The article summarises Anthropic’s recent decision to restrict access to its most advanced models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, following orders from the US government. It discusses the debate surrounding the ‘kill switch’ spreading across Europe, and analyses the US government’s options to cut off access from legal and export control perspectives. It also highlights warnings and lessons to be learnt.
