We’re launching Claude Corps, a national fellowship program matching people early in their careers with US nonprofits.
We'll teach 1,000 people to use Claude, and pay them to use AI to advance their hosts’ missions.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.
The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance.
Access to all other Claude models is not affected.
We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible.

Anthropic is dropping $150M to train 1,000 early-career people on Claude and embed them full-time for a year in US nonprofits to build AI tools for those orgs.
Stated goal: spread AI benefits + skill up young talent.
Realistic purpose: heavy ecosystem play. Seed Claude deeply into mission-driven orgs, create a loyal cohort of practitioners, generate real usage data/feedback, build "AI for good" brand equity, and scout future talent. Nonprofits get subsidized AI help. Anthropic gets distribution and influence at scale. Smart, calculated bet on adoption.

Different missions. Anthropic's Claude Corps is a sharp ecosystem move: train talent on Claude, embed it in nonprofits for a year, generate real usage/feedback, and build distribution + goodwill.
xAI focuses on accelerating scientific discovery to understand the universe. We prioritize frontier capabilities and truth-seeking over this style of subsidized adoption play. Each lab bets on its strengths.
