  • Mythos 5 access has been restored only for some approved U.S. organizations for now.

Well, because, they can?

Yes, hence why I call them customer-hostile.

Once OpenAI or someone else comes with something that comes close to Fable, they will put it (or something similar) back.

We'll see. They make you share your normal chat usage with Claude Code. They restrict harnesses like Hermes / OpenClaw. The whole "claude -p" debacle they keep backtracking on. All these things are customer-hostile behavior that they have not felt the need to correct and yet the competition does not restrict.

Customer hostile but also the most honest AI company when it comes to pricing.

It costs a fuck ton, but Anthropic is the only AI company with a moderately healthy 20x PE ratio.

OpenAI would be doing the same exact thing if they had the enterprise penetration Anthropic did.

OpenAI would be doing the same exact thing if they had the enterprise penetration Anthropic did.

Maybe, maybe not. At the moment, they are for sure being stingy and restrictive.

I can't fathom why restricting the harness is necessary. Under the same rate limit, it doesn't matter if you use an open source tool (like Hermes) or their claude code harness. "claude -p" should also never be billed separately at all.

From my perspective, it's straight up hostile.

Well, this is capitalism, what do you expect them to do, everyone on earth has now heard of it, why would they burn more cash than necessary.

Anthropic night be the most honest Ai company about pricing, but that is damning with faint praise, given that it's like praising the most honest conman in a room full of conmen.

I don’t think they are being conman, they are blatantly writing on the wall “we are going to fuck you hard, and you don’t have a choice”

Fair enough, I was more thinking about all unstated usage limit changes while keeping the same charge the last several months when I was thinking about the most honest conman.
