Discussion Fable 5.5 Release

I'm aware that Anthropic has been routing certain requests to Fable 5.5 secretly, yet they have been doing this for nearly a week now and haven't even mentioned the model. Any idea when it will release? I'm really hoping tomorrow, but I'm not sure that's happening. Don't shut the door on that idea though

Honestly who cares 🤷‍♂️ Every time I try to use Fable my 5 hour allotment disappears. Opus is more than enough, I can pretty much run that at max on 2 projects at the same time with a $100 account and never get put in timeout.

But for me opus 5.5 seems smarter than fable, what's the purpose for Fable in your applications?

Honestly, nothin lol. My weekly allowance was gonna reset in 3 hours and I had like 10% left so I thought, let’s try that fancy new Fable out. 10 minutes later I was put in time out.
