They did talk about it at length in the post, and most of the guardrails were already there in the first release. To be clear, it shouldn't have anything to do with the user. It's the prompt, and if it switches, it'll tell

Eh, I have yet to get safety-switched from Fable to Opus. Your mileage may vary.

Also, unlike the other Anthropic models, Fable/Mythos couldn't be used with a zero data retention agreement.

No, we're supposed to believe the official California Assembly committee bill analysis of SB 1047 over hacker news comments. Notably, SB 1047 passed the Legislature but was vetoed by Governor Newsom in September 2024. So whether or n

So this hinges on a reading of SB 1047 that interpreted the full shutdown requirement as impossible for an open-weight LLM. But it looks like that was already addressed. Here's an analysis: >Clarifying the scope of a “full shutdow

"Don't publish safety research, or the gov will take punitive actions." I want a company to be able to point out that its industry needs more regulation without making itself a special target.

Oh, it's back! It'd disappeared from my "More Models" list and has now returned. Odd, but great.

Anthropic’s research makes the case that role-playing is inherent to how the models work. Communication implies a sender. Language implies a writer, and the models learn these roles implicitly during training. RLHF is meant to strengthen

Unfortunately, looks like 4.6 is now gone from the web ui.

Yeah, I was using 4.6 way more than 4.7. Pulling 4.6 from the web chat also means we lose access to Extended Thinking there. So they're saving on compute. It's hard not to assume this was part of the motivation behind the 4.8 r

It seems like a lot of things fed into that. Anthropic couldn't keep up with the compute costs when they got a huge influx of users. (So) effort level defaults got turned down. (Looks like we have direct effort control in the web int

4.7 was the first time I had to resort to using the previous version (4.6) for most use cases. Hoping 4.8 rectifies this.

Yeah, this is pretty clearly what's going on, but I wish they'd be more transparent about it. Funneling compute to Mythos and Design, while auto-setting effort levels lower and removing user control of extended thinking. I don&#

Agreed, putting effort into my side of the role-play almost always improves the model's responses. The attention required to do that also makes it more likely that I'll notice when the conversation first starts going off the rail

As I understand it, it's more that the training (and training data set) bake in the concept attractor space ( https://arxiv.org/abs/2601.11575 ). So the available characters are fixed, yes, and some are much strong

You're essentially summoning a character to role-play with. Just like with esoteric evocation, it's very easy to summon the wrong aspect of the spirit. Anthropic has a lot to say about this: https://www.anthropic.com&
