AI = Awesome Intelligence

US govt shutting down Claude Fable to all is proof that:
  1. The US Govt has seen Mythos.
  2. They know that Fable is the stepping stone to Mythos (AGI)
  3. Trump strong arming Anthropic, The US Govt wants Mythos to itself.
  4. Mythos (& all AGI) represents an existential threat to the SOTU and world order as we know it.
  5. Proof? Anthropic provided the top financial institutions time to prepare for a Mythos release (google Project Glasswing)
As I understand it, this ended up getting banned because someone somewhere in the Amazon universe managed to jailbreak Fable and prove that they could turn it into Mythos and it would do the work everyone is scared of.

This may also be why GPT 5.6 is on ice - they don't want to release before Fable 5 comes back out but they also don't want to release and get banned by the government. In the meantime there are hundreds of reports about how GPT 5.5 is performing terribly, which typically happens just before a new model release.

And then yesterday they dropped his interesting gem:

When I first started programming (about 2 decades ago) the biggest fear we had was "what happens if the site goes down" and we made all these ridiculous promises like 99.999% uptime and 1 hour SLAs. Fast-forward to 2026 and one of the fastest growing companies in the history of the planet has an uptime graph that looks like this:

AI is great. On the flip side, we aren't far from models going full ham and creating their own updates. Anthropics test of a fictional shutdown scenario and Claude's blackmail response will seem minor.
 

✨ AI Highlights

  • Claude and Gemini replaced ChatGPT for coding, planning, and research tasks
  • AI avatars with cloned voices fooled real people including spouses
  • Dealers built agents to stock inventory and find auction vehicles autonomously

Dealers and vendor partners share experiences with AI tools, with discussion centering on Anthropic's Claude models (referred to as Fable 5 and the speculative Mythos/AGI successor), reliability issues, and broader AI industry developments. A notable aside covers a Nebraska independent dealer association VP who used AI to build a continuing education platform required by new state law. The key tension emerging is that teams are now deeply dependent on these tools — with outages leaving entire organizations "dead in the water" — while simultaneously speculating about government intervention and the existential implications of advancing AI models.
