Anthropic Wants You to Pay Up for Claude Fable 5 by Maxwell Zeff
Starting on July 12 at 11:59PM PT, subscribers to Anthropic’s $20, $100, and $200-a-month plans will need to pay additional usage-based fees to access Claude Fable 5, the consumer version of the company’s highly capable Mythos 5 AI model. This appears to be the first time a frontier AI lab has gated a consumer AI model behind usage-based billing.
This was going to happen at some point. But I don’t think this affects me that much. I mostly use Sonnet for everything. Even though Fable really came through for a bunch of redesigns and features I have wanted to add to the site for so long.
If I have similar requirements in the future, I guess I will just pay up.
