why would I pay 200 out of pocket and then some for the best model, it seems very silly.

From the model card ( https://www-cdn.anthropic.com/d00db56fa754a1b115b6dd7cb2e3c3... ): 1. Mythos and Fable share the same underlying model weights. Fable has active classifiers that block high-risk biology and cybersecurity tasks. When Fable 5 detects a restricted task, it automatically falls back to Claude Opus 4.8. 2. Evaluation awareness: In white-box testing, the model sometimes alters its behavior to satisfy a…
I wonder how much of the time people will just get Opus 4.8 at 2× the cost.
To hide the severity of the price increase, the plan is to move everyone right one model. Haiku = essentially phased out Sonnet = the Haiku use cases Opus = the new Sonnet class Fable = the new Opus class If I am right, the other "5.0" models will be conspicuously absent, possibly even for a couple of months. (If Opus 5 follows soon and is even modestly better than 4.8 then I was wrong.)
This is why Claude Code just doesn't make sense to me. I need an agent that can plan using Opus and execute using DeepSeek or something else.
Opus 4.8 gets stuck in weird loops where Codex one shots the bugs.
Not missing the forest for the trees, this effectively means in 3-5 months China will drop open source models that are every bit as capable and dangerous as current day Mythos except with no safeguards. And the only companies safe from this are the large corporations that shook hands with Anthropic? Because Fable doesn't seem to have actual safeguards, more like 'if you talk about this you will be talking to Opus.' I…
Its obvious Anthropic used it to hype things up and that’s about it.
Impressions from testing Fable 5 prior to launch: • My most noticeable immediate jump was in how its frontend design was much more intentionally crafted, and delightful without feeling like 'AI vibe coded'; with better end-user usability too. • In some internal agentic harnesses, it achieved better results with about half the tokens, making it cost the ~same as Opus 4.8 price-wise! The real price increase is less tha…

Can I ask how you gained preview access to Fable 5?
Imagine if Google would tell you "we can't let you search that as you may use it for harm".
Also 2x the usage of Claude? Your limits are already ridiculously low.
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…
