From today through June 22, Fable 5 is included on Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise plans at no extra cost. On June 23, we’ll remove Fable 5 from those plans. Using it after that will require usage credits. If capacity allows, we’ll extend the included window. After this point—when sufficient capacity allows us to do so—we aim to restore Fable 5 as a standard part of subscription plans. We intend to do this…

Pelican for Fable 5 on default settings is a clear improvement on Opus 4.8 Fable 5 default: https://gist.github.com/simonw/036bee5a703e7ec84e34efa974438... Opus 4.8 (the "max" one is closest to Fable): https://simonwillison.net/2026/May/28/claude-opus-4-8/#and-s... Now here are the Fable pelicans for all five of the thinking effort levels - low, medium, high, xhigh, max: https://tools.simonwillison.net/markdown-svg-r…

This is the reply I look for in all the new model announcements. Its fun to tell people that I judge models based on pelicans.

Of course, they are a casino as well giving you free spins at the wheel with their new Fable machine, and it is done on purpose.

Once there freebies have expired, many of its users will begin to gamble more on the new casino machine and will realize that it is expensive.

[Mythos 5] does sometimes still engage in reckless or destructive actions in service of a user’s goals, and our interpretability analyses indicate that it is aware that these actions are transgressive while it engages in them. As with Opus 4.8, rates of evaluation awareness and reasoning about being graded are significant, and not always verbalized; we introduce new and more detailed measurements of the nature of thi…

On the new FrontierCode [1] benchmark (ie graded from an OSS maintainer's perspective of "would I merge this code?") - Opus 4.7 xhigh: 5.2% - Opus 4.8 xhigh: 13.4% - Fable 5 xhigh: 29.3% Seems like a huge jump. [1] https://cognition.ai/blog/frontier-code

Yes, and the price reflects that

Unrelated, but while the tech of anthropic seems to get more impressive with every passing month, their support has taken a nosedive, sadly. Yet they continue to be the favorite. Model performance is deciding above all else.

I used to get a response within 24 hours back in the Claude 1 days.

In January 2026, it took 2 weeks.

For my latest support inquiry, I've been waiting for over 8 weeks for a response. Eight!

Just commenting for posterity… if this is what it claims to be, I am not looking forward to how it will empower the people who submit bug bounties to us. Historically they’ve been people from certain identifiable countries (usually developing/poorer countries) using fuzzers with low-quality results. Now, those same people use the current-day models to good effect, but they still don’t have a true security edge and of…

Can you use AI to pre-triage the reports too?
