> Distillation. We’ve previously identified large-scale attempts to extract (“distill”) Claude’s capabilities to train competing models in authoritarian countries. Glad to hear the UK is finally making an effort to catch up on the AI front ;)
I've been running Opus 4.8 for agentic coding and I don't see it being significantly better than Sonnet 4.5 (not that I can tell). I find that pairing Google Gemini and Claude (having Gemini review Claude's code) seems to yield better results. Curious if this jump to 80.3% score in agentic coding will make me see a big difference in actual usage.
For those of us on subscription plans: * 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…

Probably tongue-in-cheek, but UK 18th, US joint 34th with Poland
Is this "system card" equivalent to the stone tablets handed down to Moses? Why don't you call it "user manual"? Do people chant the "system manual" at Anthropic Tupperware parties? Do they intone a mantra invoking Amodei's name?
Also research preview pops across new upstarts in place of beta. It's eye-rolling coming from a lifelong curmudgeon.
Just talk normal!

As much as people on HN like to dunk on Gemini, I’ve always found it to be pretty good at understanding a code base more than Claude.

> On June 23, we’ll remove Fable 5 from those plans. Using it after that will require usage credits. We've entered the phase where only companies will be able to afford state-of-the-art models.
> Unlike our interventions for cybersecurity, biology and chemistry, and distillation attempts, these safeguards will not be visible to the user. Fable 5 will not fall back to a different model. Instead, the safeguards will limit effectiveness through methods such as prompt modification, steering vectors, or parameter-efficient fine-tuning (PEFT). These interventions will not affect the vast majority of coding work. We estimate they will impact ~0.03% of traffic, concentrated in fewer than 0.1% of organizations
