America Blocks AI Access 🔒

• Trump reportedly told Anthropic to block every non-American from Fable 5 and Mythos 5.

• Anthropic chose the nuclear option and shut both models down.

• The “national security” reason is still vague, which makes this messier.

• AI access is becoming political power, not just product access.

Meta’s China Deal Breaks 🇨🇳

• Meta’s $2B Manus deal is being pulled apart by Chinese regulators.

• Meta has cut Manus off from its systems and data.

• China is basically saying top AI startups cannot just be sold to America.

• The new founder reality: your exit may need state approval.

OpenAI Gets Subpoenaed ⚖️

• State attorneys general are now investigating OpenAI.

• They want documents on ads, retention, kids, health data, and ChatGPT’s behavior.

• Bad timing, because OpenAI is also trying to go public.

• The real IPO risk may not be revenue. It may be lawsuits.
