Investing.com -- JPMorgan Chase has restricted its Hong Kong employees from accessing Anthropic’s artificial intelligence models, the Financial Times reported on Thursday, citing three people familiar with the matter.
Staff at the Wall Street bank’s Hong Kong office can no longer select Claude models from the internal list of approved large language models, the FT reported.
The decision was based on the language in Anthropic’s usage terms within its licensing agreement with JPMorgan, the FT report said.
The move mirrors a similar act by Goldman Sachs, which the FT had reported earlier in June.
Western AI models including OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Claude are prohibited in mainland China as part of the Great Firewall that limits information from outside the country. Hong Kong has usually been exempt from this censorship.
Last week, Anthropic suspended all access to its advanced AI model Fable after the U.S. government requested it to restrict access for foreign citizens due to national security concerns.
