Anthropic just released Claude Fable 5, calling it the most powerful AI model it has ever made widely available and praising its skills in biology, among others. But the model won't answer basic biology questions - the kind you'd expect a high schooler to handle. Instead, it hands off the query to the former flagship model, Claude Opus 4.8. It isn't because Fable doesn't know the answers. It's because Anthropic won't let it, by design. Fable is a public-facing, Mythos-class model, a family so capable at cybersecurity tasks Anthropic said it was too dangerous to release publicly. But while Ant...
Research: Running Python ASGI apps in the browser via Pyodide + a service worker Datasette Lite is my version of Datasette that runs entirely in the browser using Pyodide in WebAssembly. When I first built it four years ago I used Web Workers and code that intercepts navigation operations and fetches the generated HTML by running the Python app. This worked, but had the disadvantage that any JavaScript in <script> tags would not be executed - breaking some Datasette functionality and a whole lot of Datasette plugins. This morning I set Claude Opus 4.8 the task (in Claude Code for web) of figu...
Anthropic shipped Claude Opus 4.8 today. My favourite thing about it is this note in the release announcement: Users will find Opus 4.8 to be a modest but tangible improvement on its predecessor. There’s still more to be done: we’re working on developing and releasing models that provide many of the same capabilities as Opus at a lower cost. It's so refreshing to see an AI lab honestly describe a release as a minor incremental improvement over the previous model! Honesty seems to be a theme. Here's my other favorite note from that announcement: One of the most prominent improvements in Opus 4...
Release: llm-anthropic 0.25.1 New model: Claude Opus 4.8 ( claude-opus-4.8 ). New -o fast 1 option for fast mode , for organizations with that feature enabled on their account. Default max_tokens for each model now defaults to that model's maximum output rather than 8,192. #72 See also my notes on Opus 4.8 - I used this new release of llm-anthropic to generate the pelicans.
Anthropic is releasing Claude Opus 4.8 on Thursday, and the company is touting the model's "honesty." According to Anthropic, it trains "all [its] models to be honest - for instance, to avoid making claims that they can't support." But it notes that "a general problem with AI models is that they sometimes jump to conclusions, confidently presenting their work as making progress despite thin evidence." The AI lab claims that early testers have found that Opus 4.8 "is more likely to flag uncertainties about its work and less likely to make unsupported claims." In the company's evaluations, Opus...
An upgrade to our Opus class of models, with stronger performance across coding, agentic tasks, and professional work, and the consistency to handle long-running work.
We’re upgrading Claude Opus to a new version: Claude Opus 4.8. It builds on Opus 4.7 with sharper judgment, more honesty about its own progress, and the ability to work independently for longer than its predecessors. Available today for the same price. In Claude Code, you can hand off a feature, a migration, or a bug sweep and let it follow the work through while you focus on what’s next. Also launching today: * Fast mode for Opus 4.8 (research preview). Same model at roughly 2.5x the speed, now three times cheaper than before. * Dynamic workflows in Claude Code (research preview).
