@felixriesebergToday, we're introducing Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, two configurations of our next major language model. I'd normally highlight the numbers: It's SOTA on nearly all benchmarks. I want to talk about something else, because with Fable 5 out in the world, I think a third eraFelix Rieseberg@karpathyThis is a super exciting release - Claude Fable 5 is the same underlying model as Mythos but with added safeguards. The benchmarks are great and it's SOTA on everything by a margin but I'll add that *qualitatively* also, this is a major-version-bump-deserving step change forwardAndrej Karpathy@natolambertIf anthropic can't convince a bunch of tech bro's on X that they're not safety washing, good luck convincing the american public.Nathan Lambert@illscienceA few notes on Fable 5: - It's interesting that it routes certain requests to 4.8 behind the scenes - in this case it's for safety but if you squint you can imagine a cost optimization where queries are classified and routed based on the amount of intelligence needed - Calling [image]Anish Acharya@altryneThis is fascinating. This is what made Anthropic decide that it's near CB2 - Without AI tools the task they were given was estimated in 40-95 days, with Mythos 5, two person team accomplished this task in 16 hours. While being generalists! [image]Alex Volkov@sashademThe tenor and complexity of model launches have changed completely over the past few months. Fable 5 felt like a transition into an entirely new chapter of AI's story. And the quest to enable the strengths of these models while preventing their risks has never felt more urgent.Sasha de Marigny@zapierClaude Fable 5 is the new top score on AutomationBench: 17.4% Best where precision is the whole job: Ops, HR, anything long-running where the model needs to recover, not quit [image]@altryneVery interesting new restriction, you cannot use Fable 5 to accelerate ML and LLM development!? Things like training pipelines, pretraining, distributed infrastructure and ML Accelerator design! Anthropic is keeping it's edge with these models and sandbagging everyone else! [image]Alex Volkov@levieIf you thought AI progress was slowing down, well here's the immediate answer to that. Huge jump in capability across the board. This is going to deliver major improvement in agents across almost all knowledge work categories. [image]Aaron Levie@peterwildefordProps to the @AnthropicAI marketing team. They successfully scared us with the name “Mythos” and now that they want us to use it, its morphed into the cute and cuddly “Fable” [image]Peter Wildeford@eliebakouchwow claude mythos/fable benchmark scores are insane [image]Elie@swyxMythos is live! so excited to have our FrontierCode recognized as the next frontier coding bench. on FC Diamond, BOTH Opus 4.8 and GPT 5.5 don't meaningfully scale with effort, which many of you caught yesterday. Mythos/Fable posttraining have really applied that test time [image]@yuchenj_uwClaude Fable 5 / Mythos 5 wins everywhere. I thought Fable 5 was just a nerfed Mythos Preview, but it's literally better. SWE-Bench Pro: Fable 5: 80.3%, GPT-5.5: 58.6%. And the price is only 2x Opus 4.8: $10/input MTok, $50/output MTok. I don't think GPT 5.6 can beat this... [image]Yuchen Jin@scaling01“Mythos 5 is likely unable to fully and reliably automate R&D for frontier projects spanning multiple weeks” [image]@emollickI've had access to Fable for a bit. A genuine jump in capability, I could feed it a 15 page design document for a project and it would work for 9+ hours and deliver terrific results. But working with it is weird & weirder is coming Lots of examples: https://www.oneusefulthing.org/ ...Ethan Mollick@mweinbachClaude Fable 5 (Mythos 5 with safeguards in place, same weights) It's available today, but only available as part of the Claude sub until June 22nd then it will cost extra at API rates. After that, it MAY come to subscriptions if capacity allows Anthropic to offer it. [image]Max Weinbach@cursor_aiClaude Fable 5 is now available in Cursor. It sets a new state of the art on CursorBench at 72.9%, 8 points above the previous best. [image]@zephyr_z9Well they don't have the infra to serve 200B+ active param model U will have to wait till Rubin or pray that they distill it well in Opus 5@altryneNEW: Anthropic releases 2 “mythos” models which advance their capability frontier! Fable 5: will have additional safeguards in topics related to Cyber and Biology Mythos 5: Will continue to be available via Project Glasswing System Card is out, so let's read together. [image]Alex Volkov@alexalbert__I've been at Anthropic through every model launch. There's been a few cases I can remember of a launch that stands out and marks a step-change in how we use models: - Claude Opus 3 - Claude Sonnet 3.5 - Claude Opus 4.5 And now Claude Fable 5. With Fable, the model stoppedAlex Albert@claudeaiFable 5's safeguards detect requests related to cybersecurity, biology and chemistry, and distillation. Users are informed whenever a fallback occurs—on average in less than 5% of sessions. We'll keep refining the safeguards to reduce false positives.Claude@claudeaiReleasing a model this capable comes with risks. Without safeguards, Fable 5's capabilities in areas like cybersecurity could be misused to cause serious damage. Queries on a narrow range of topics will instead receive a response from our next-most-capable model, Opus 4.8. [video]Claude@claudeaiFable 5 is state-of-the-art on nearly all tested benchmarks, with exceptional performance in software engineering, knowledge work, scientific research, and vision. The longer and more complex the task, the larger Fable 5's lead over our other models. [image]Claude@claudeaiIntroducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we've made safe for general use. Its capabilities exceed those of any model we've ever made generally available. [video]Claude@danshipperBREAKING: Anthropic just dropped Claude Fable 5—this is Mythos, made safe for public release. It is the best coding model in the world. We've been testing it internally @every for the last week or so across coding, writing, marketing, editing, and more—here's our vibe check: - [video]Dan Shipper@fabknowledgeTotal victory.... holy shit [image]@arrakis_aiClaude Fable 5 Benchmark [image]Choi@mikeykClaude Fable 5 is out today.

@awnihannunIt's very cool that Apple shipped a 20B parameter on-device. You can't put 20B parameters in RAM at any reasonable precision.

@greengartOn agentic AI: you can use Apple systems to run OpenClaw-like agentic apps.  Siri is primarily request-based today, but the “completely modern agentic architecture” allows it to be extended in the future.  Apple is seeking to find a way to make agentic AI “helpful, useful, understandable by consumers, and safe.” …Avi Greengart

@neil_chilsonAn appropriate division of labor between the federal government and the states on AI remains a top priority of this administration. But the devil is in the details. GAAIA showed a bipartisan willingness to negotiate those details, and this is a White House that likes to makeNeil Chilson

@pmarcaIt's time to train.Marc Andreessen@gabby_hoffmanA+ from @Meta. More of this, please!Gabriella Hoffman@jordansekulowLove this announcement by @Meta and what it will mean to American workers, we need more companies like @Meta to follow their leadJordan Sekulow@ginaraimondoMany Americans face a Catch-22, they need training to get a new higher paying job, but they can't go without pay to attend a training course. This initiative aims to solve this problem with paid apprenticeships and credentials that lead to actual, available good jobs.Gina Raimondo@toddstarnesAmerican jobs on American soil! Well done, @Meta@asheeshkagarwal1/6 1/6 Big news today for hardworking Americans and Hoosiers— and for my home in Boone County, Indiana. See https://www.foxbusiness.com/ ....Asheesh Agarwal@kristianstoutThe underlying idea here is the same argument I've been making: the binding constraint on the AI era isn't the models. It's the complements — skilled labor, energy, and the people who physically build the infrastructure.Kristian Stout@ingrahamangleGood — American jobs in the trades for American workers. Every high school should bring back shop class, too, https://www.wsj.com/...Laura Ingraham@logandobsonAwesome collaboration between Meta's @DinaPowellMcC and @mikeroweworks on creating new blue collar jobs building the infrastructure of AI right here in America. https://www.wsj.com/...Logan Dobson@davidjharrisjrLove this from the team at @Meta!David J Harris Jr@jordanschachtelGreat new initiative highlighted by @DinaPowellMcC & @mikeroweworks. Tech and trades are interdependent, not rivals. You can't build technological infrastructure without electricians, plumbers, techs, and this kind of commitment will help keep America number one globally. [image]Jordan Schachtel@davidsacksThe AI infrastructure boom is generating strong demand for skilled blue-collar workers.  In fact, there's a shortage of electricians, fiber technicians, and mechanical tradespeople needed to build and maintain AI data centers.  Meta's new $115M America's Workforce Academy provides paid training plus job guarantees for exactly these roles.  This is the kind of practical jobs training program that we need more of.David Sacks@collinsfortxExcited to see Meta investing in a ‘Workforce Academy’ to build skills and opportunities! When companies focus on developing American talent, expanding opportunity, and strengthening our workforce here at home, it's a win for everyone. Let's make sure this prioritizes U.S.Christian Collins@joshuaogunduWe can't reach our AI goals without reaching our construction goalsJosh@bob_rommelThis is awesome, great skills will lead to a lifetime of prosperity.Bob Rommel@jesse_legSeems quite good. [image]Jesse Arm@mikeisaac#learn2weldRat King@francisbrennanAmerica wasn't built in boardrooms. It was built by Americans who work with their hands and the future will be too. America's Workforce Academy is the largest private-sector commitment to the skilled trades with a guaranteed job in American history. The future is for everyone.Francis Brennan@joel_kaplanThe AI boom is creating a massive demand for skilled workers across America - electricians, construction trades, fiber techs, mechanical specialists. There's a national shortage of nearly 350,000 construction and trade workers. Meta is doing something about it. America's [video]Joel Kaplan@jasonmillerThis is cool - Trump 45 alum @DinaPowellMcC has teamed up with @mikeroweworks for an op-ed in the @WSJ on how the AI boom is helping America's blue-collar workers. #MAGA 🇺🇸 “High-Tech Seeks Skilled Tradesmen” https://www.wsj.com/...Jason Miller@lpdonovanMeta coming in at this scale to invest in the local skilled trades pipeline is both practically necessary and politically shrewd. Often lost amid the abstract debates, but buildout only happens with the workforce to sustain it. Win-win-win for industry, workers, and communities.Liam Donovan@ryanafournierThis is a great effort for the American workforce, more companies should follow suit!Ryan Fournier@dinapowellmccToday @Meta is proud to launch America's Workforce Academy with our partners. This program will provide paid training, certification and a job for Americans of all backgrounds to be part of building American leadership in the world.
