WTF! I want my money back. I upgraded my plan to Max 20x just so I could use Fable 5 for next 12 days. "The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance." www.anthropic.com/news/fable-m...

Anthropic's When AI builds itself "We looked at sessions where a human researcher took a wrong turn, showed Claude the session up to that point, and asked it what to do next. Mythos Preview improved on humans 64% of the time—up from 22% in 2024." www.anthropic.com/institute/re...
China’s Ministry of Commerce has led meetings over the past month with major AI companies, including Alibaba, ByteDance, and Z.ai, to discuss measures that would restrict overseas access to cutting-edge AI models, including models that have not yet been released. www.reuters.c…

New gemma!!! And it's a diffusion model! Deepmind keeps releasing diffusion stuff 🤔 it's not that much worse on benches compared to the same sized autoregressive Gemma 4
AI Weekly's analysis
→
- DiffusionGemma generates 256 tokens per forward pass using bidirectional attention, reaching 1,000+ tokens/sec on a single H100 GPU.
- With only 3.8B active parameters during inference and an 18GB VRAM footprint when quantized, it runs on consumer hardware without server-grade resources.
- Google recommends DiffusionGemma only for speed-critical workloads like in-line editing and code infilling, not for applications requiring maximum quality.

Recent commentary
I call B.S. on this. Anthropic would cut them off before this happens. They want to get paid after all.
I'm guessing Anthropic is also working on their own custom AI chip.
TinyRouter They built a small coordinator that, for every question, decides two things: which of three open-source LLMs should answer it, and what role that model should play (Thinker, Worker, or Verifier). The coordinator is deliberately tiny and cheap.
I remember people cacelling their OpenAI subscription because they sold their AI to US Defense Department. Me: I’m not cancelling. They’re all same. It seems Anthropic is personally supporting NSA to spy on us. Like they have people at NSA onsite, helping them.
In the age of AI coding agents, can a single hybrid architect/developer outperform a traditional team of architects and engineers using the same tools? Funny enough, based on my experience, the answer is yes.
Nvidia’s Nemotron 3 Ultra. A 550B MoE frontier-intelligence open model built for long-running agents. It delivers 5x faster inference and lowers the cost of complex agentic tasks by up to 30% versus other open frontier models.
Anthropic: Use Fable/Mythos to harden your app against security threats. Me: Tries to use Fable/Mythos to harden my app against security threats. Anthropic: Fable 5's safety measures flagged this message for cybersecurity or biology topics. They may flag safe, normal content as well.
It seems Chinese LLMs are having a pricing war.
Let the sovereign AI war begin. For years, people have worried that countries would eventually restrict access to frontier AI in order to preserve national competitive advantage. The recent USG directive against Anthropic’s Fable 5 effectively codified that concern.
What I don’t understand is the assumption that human software developers are inherently better than AI coding agents. That may be true for the top tier of human developers, but for the vast majority, I don’t think the gap is as obvious as people want to believe.
