#35 Claude Fable 5: Healthcare advancements, model anxiety, over-guardrailing and aftermath

Let me do a brief intro, and then we'll go through a couple of fun and interesting things that happened with Fable and performance and whatever else.

Um, so Fable was released now, maybe like a week ago or something like that.

It was up for like two days, three days at most, and then it was killed by the US government.

Uh, reason being too scary.

It can be jailbroken, and someone can get whatever the capabilities of hacking every website in the world and stuff like that.

But yeah, it was the new release, new class of models from Anthropic.

Opus was the previous biggest one.

Fable is now the new class of models, or in fact, they call it like Mythos.

Mythos is the whole class.

Fable is one of the flavors of, of Mythos class models.

Yeah.

And there was a lot of noise with Mythos even before Fable came out.

So, so Fable is the, you know, the public version of Mythos, now no longer public, but it was initially called Mythos.

Yeah.

And that made waves, well, from my reading because, uh, I think before they released it, they gave it to different banks and different, uh, cybersecurity companies and things and-

Mm

... and they showed that with Mythos, you can basically-- they found a lot, lot of exploits or problems in the code, which can lead to abuse.

Yeah, and Anthropic was hyping it up quite a bit, saying, "This is the most intelligent model.

This can break things.

This can...

We have to be very careful with it.

We have to release it very slowly." They didn't even release the Mythos model.

They released the Fable, which should be like an, um, more-- a safer version of the Mythos model.

So the Mythos was almost like no limitations-

Mm-hmm
