U.S. ‌President Donald Trump ​said on Wednesday that negotiations with artificial intelligence company Anthropic are "going ‌fine." Trump made the comment to reporters at the G7 summit after a meeting between leaders and tech bosses ‌including Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei. Anthropic is in a dispute ‌with the Trump administration over foreign access to its most advanced AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5. The company on ⁠Friday disabled ​access for ⁠all users to those models after Trump ordered Anthropic to block ⁠foreign nationals from accessing them. The meeting with G7 leaders and ​tech bosses was the first time that Trump has ⁠met with Amodei in public since the order. The Trump ⁠administration ​has said it has "national security concerns" with Anthropic's most advanced models. Spokespeople for Anthropic and Trump did ⁠not immediately respond to requests from Reuters to provide more detail ⁠about ⁠the discussions between the two.
