Anthropic Says New Fable AI Model Is Cheaper, Better at Coding · deccanchronicle.com

Anthropic has created two new versions of its Claude artificial intelligence system.

They are called Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1.

Both use the same basic AI technology.

Fable is available more generally, while Mythos has stronger limits and is only given to approved users.

Anthropic says Fable is better at coding, research and long tasks.

It also says the new model costs less to use than the previous version.

In one example, the model reportedly helped identify a very unusual software problem.

Anthropic says Mythos is intended for vetted cybersecurity and life-science researchers.
