Ever since Anthropic first made the earth-shaking disclosure of its incredibly capable Claude Mythos AI model back in April and the steps it was taking toward a safe release of that product, the AI public has been waiting with bated breath to get its hands on its capabilities to give them a spin. Now, with today's release of Claude Fable 5, Anthropic says it finally has a model of this class that's "safe for general use." Anthropic is also releasing the unrestricted Mythos 5 model to members of its Project Glasswing program for use in sensitive cybersecurity and biology contexts.

That sort of task compression on a job of such massive scope illustrates how Fable 5 and Mythos 5 "can work autonomously for longer than any previous Claude models," in addition to their high overall level of capability.
