Overview
- Goldman Sachs removed Hong Kong staff access to Anthropic’s Claude in recent weeks after a strict reading of its contract and consultations with the company.
- Employees in the city can still use OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini through Goldman’s internal AI platform.
- Anthropic told the Financial Times that Claude has never been officially supported in Hong Kong, and the company does not list the city as a covered market.
- The Hong Kong Monetary Authority told Reuters it has contacted major banks to understand developments around Anthropic’s new Mythos model.
- The move reflects a patchwork approach to enterprise AI access, since U.S. models are blocked in mainland China while availability in Hong Kong depends on each provider’s own policies.
