G7 leaders discussed a potential scheme to grant a limited number of “trusted partners” access to U.S. frontier models developed by AI giants like Anthropic and therefore win an exemption from a current ban on non-U.S. nationals, three diplomatic sources said on Tuesday.
Last week, Washington decided to suspend access to Anthropic’s most advanced AI models for foreign nationals, citing national security concerns.
One of the sources said a number of delegates discussed the idea with U.S. representatives, mainly with U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, on the sidelines of the opening G7 summit dinner in the French lakeside resort of Evian-les-Bains.
These “trusted partners” could be countries or companies, said a second source, who declined to be named because the talks were ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
