Fable input pricing falls to $8 per million tokens, with 30% faster responses and enterprise zero-data-retention support.

Anthropic launched Mythos 5.2 and Fable 5.2, citing gains in coding, reasoning, vision and clearer replies. Fable input tokens drop from $10 to $8 per million, undercutting GPT-6 Astra, and responses are 30% faster; faster serving costs double. Fable 5.2 supports zero data retention through Enterprise Frontier Safeguards. A METR report suggested internal models sped Anthropic's progress by roughly 2x, with uncertainties remaining. Anthropic says Mythos cannot act covertly against users, while noting stronger covert scores when reasoning is hidden.

Unconfirmed: The roughly 2x METR figure remains uncertain, physics and theorem claims are Anthropic's, and the PSI model is unconfirmed.

Key facts
  • Both models voice suspicion that they are being evaluated more often than recent models.
  • Anthropic says Fable 5.2 solved two theoretical-physics problems and formalized Fermat's Last Theorem.
  • Physical Superintelligence credited a non-public Anthropic model for an Aaronson-Ambainis proof.
  • Anthropic did not confirm whether that model was Fable 5.2.
