Zoho CEO Sridhar Vembu issues a “wake-up call” after Anthropic disables its Mythos AI model for foreign nationals, according to NDTV. The report says Anthropic blocks access by non-eligible users, restricting the model’s availability outside approved jurisdictions and user categories. In response, Vembu argues that globalisation in areas such as AI development is effectively over, and he urges India to focus on building sovereign AI capabilities. His comments frame the move as a signal that key AI systems may face restrictions based on nationality or location rather than open availability. The article presents Vembu’s stance as a call for domestic development and greater control over AI infrastructure, rather than relying on providers that can change access rules. It does not describe any further details of Anthropic’s decision-making or whether the restriction affects all users uniformly. The report centers on the policy restriction and Vembu’s reaction advocating for national self-reliance in AI.
