Amazon CEO reportedly raised Anthropic model concerns before government crackdown

据报道,亚马逊首席执行官在政府采取行动前曾对 Anthropic 模型提出担忧

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy may have been the source of security concerns that led Anthropic to cut off worldwide access to two models on Friday. The Wall Street Journal reports that Jassy told Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and other government officials that Amazon researchers used Anthropic’s Claude Fable 5 to obtain information that could be used in cyberattacks. 据报道,亚马逊首席执行官安迪·贾西(Andy Jassy)可能是导致 Anthropic 在周五切断两款模型全球访问权限的安全担忧的源头。《华尔街日报》报道称,贾西曾向财政部长斯科特·贝森特(Scott Bessent)及其他政府官员表示,亚马逊的研究人员利用 Anthropic 的 Claude Fable 5 模型获取了可能被用于网络攻击的信息。

The government subsequently imposed an export control ban on the Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. An Amazon spokesperson said in a statement that while it’s “not uncommon for governments to seek our counsel on potential security risks,” the company does not “share the details of those discussions.” The spokesperson also pointed to an update stating that AWS has been affected by the model cut off. 随后,政府对 Fable 5 和 Mythos 5 模型实施了出口管制禁令。亚马逊发言人在一份声明中表示,虽然“政府就潜在的安全风险寻求我们的建议并不罕见”,但公司不会“分享这些讨论的细节”。该发言人还指出,AWS 已经受到此次模型访问中断的影响。

The Information and Reuters similarly reported that Amazon (a major Anthropic investor) had communicated concerns about the security of Anthropic’s models. David Sacks, Trump’s former AI czar who now co-chairs the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology, offered his own account of the discussions, claiming that “a highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG […] came forward with a jailbreak.” Sacks added, “The Admin asked [Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei] to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused.” 《The Information》和路透社也报道称,作为 Anthropic 的主要投资者,亚马逊曾就 Anthropic 模型的安全性表达过担忧。曾任特朗普政府人工智能主管、现任总统科技顾问委员会联合主席的大卫·萨克斯(David Sacks)提供了他对这些讨论的说法,声称“一位同时受到 Anthropic 和美国政府高度信任的合作伙伴……提出了一个越狱(jailbreak)案例”。萨克斯补充道:“政府要求(Anthropic 首席执行官达里奥·阿莫代)修复该越狱漏洞或下架该模型。但达里奥拒绝了。”

Anthropic said in a blog post that the capabilities apparently causing government concern are already available in other publicly accessible models. This post has been updated with a statement from an Amazon spokesperson. Anthropic 在一篇博客文章中表示,引起政府担忧的这些功能实际上在其他公开可用的模型中也已经存在。本文已更新,加入了亚马逊发言人的声明。
