Fable 5 Returns with Heavy Restrictions After Government Ban Changed Everything

Anthropic's Fable 5 AI model is back after a three-week government shutdown, but it's not the same. New safety classifiers now block routine coding tasks, usage limits have tightened dramatically, and aggressive censorship filters are triggering on basic questions. The changes highlight tensions between AI innovation and security concerns.

Anthropic launches Claude Sonnet 5 with stronger agent capabilities and half the cost of Opus

Anthropic released Claude Sonnet 5, its most agentic mid-tier AI model yet, designed to handle multi-step automation at $2 per million input tokens—less than half the price of Opus 4.8. The model delivers enhanced reasoning and tool use while addressing safety concerns around prompt injection and hallucinations, though it deliberately avoids cybersecurity training following recent regulatory scrutiny.
