Fable - the new AI boss
Update 13 June: Access to Fable 5 blocked for non-US citizens by order of US Government. See Anthropic announcement https://www.anthropic.com/news/fable-mythos-access
Anthropic’s Fable 5 is out, and I’m experiencing a mild anxiety I didn’t expect: I don’t have a killer app idea to throw at it.
It’s a civilian version of their previously announced Project Glass Wing - reserved for select organisations because of its potential for misuse in cyberwarfare and mass-scale hacking. Mythos ships with guardrails that prevent the most dangerous applications. One of those, naturally, is using it to train competing models.
They’ve made it free to subscribers through 22 June and reset quotas to give people more room to play. After that, anyone wanting to use Fable will need to pay for it based on API-like billing. Basically pay as you use, as opposed to drawing on your Anthropic subscription.
