🤖 Anthropic Launches Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1
Anthropic released Claude Fable 5.1 on September 1 alongside Claude Mythos 5.1, the same underlying model with tighter safeguards reserved for vetted cybersecurity and life-sciences teams. Anthropic says Fable 5.1 matches or beats Fable 5 at low and medium effort while cutting cached-token costs, and in testing with investment firm Millennium it found the root cause of a system crash that had stumped engineers for years.
Fable 5.1 is available now on Claude's plans and via the API as claude-fable-5-1, with sticker pricing unchanged — the savings come from cheaper cache reads. Anthropic also says its cybersecurity guardrails fire far less often on routine coding work, worth checking before your next model-routing review.
