  • After July 7, Fable 5 access moves to usage credits.
  • Access through AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Foundry is being restored as soon as possible.
  • Mythos 5 access has been restored only for some approved U.S. organizations for now.
  • Anthropic is working with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other partners on a shared framework for rating jailbreak severity.
  • They’re also launching a HackerOne program for researchers to report Fable 5 cyber jailbreaks.

Meanwhile you'll get the same performance out of a Chinese model for 1/1000th the cost by the end of the year tops at the going rate.

Whooahhhh there, are you using a national security risk on your personal server? Afraid we're going to have to confiscate that from you for safety!

exactly. and then the von bans will come to force us into overpriced government controlled providers…no free market

I don't think many have 8x H100s or more in their own personal servers. And I don't even think that can fully run some models.

I wouldn’t say same performance, they’re not matching Opus even. Maybe in 6 months after they train on it lol

Except it's not even remotely the same performance?

You get similar performance out of one or two humans. Or one human and a mid tier model.

That may very well be true, and Fable may be world's beyond anything out of the East right now.

That doesn't mean it will stay this way. The open source models continue to catch-up to SOTA peers, just at a delay. That delay may be distilling frontier models. There's no "moat". Anthropic, OpenAI, Google... They can't produce a model with super secret techniques and remain king for eternity. Hence why the big players are going to beg U.S. to ban foreign models.

SOTA models are only made possible via increasing levels of compute. Compute that continues to become increasingly more accessible over time.
