The Anthropic releases, mythos like AI model to the public. Two months after private rollout rocked Wall Street. Is this it, Rob?

**SPEAKER_5** (0:39)
This is the promo video they released.

**SPEAKER_4** (0:41)
Go for it. Let's watch the promo video. Go ahead. This is Fable 5
That's their promo video. Come on, man, I want to see more than that. Don't tease me with some like this. Two months after Anthropic rolled out METOS to a limited number of users, citing concerns about the artificial intelligence model potential to do damage in the wrong hands, the company said it is ready to release an equally powerful model to the public. Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, a METOS class model that will be available to enterprise customers and paid subscribers. The company said the broader release is possible because of the new safeguard that block responses on specific high-risk areas, including cybersecurity and biology. Tom, why is this such a big deal, Fable 5?

**SPEAKER_5** (1:33)
So I think what's happening is two things.
One is they had to put a bunch of guardrails around it because when they released certain things, they did a private release and they did a public release. And in the private release, they talked about safety, they talked about some guardrails that were going to put around it.
But they seem to be chasing Anthropic. People were like, well, you seem to be chasing. And most people that have looked at it, I kept seeing this phrase called step change. What a step change is is when you're like, you get like a big software upgrade on your Apple phone. You just went from 26.1 to 26.3. That's a step change. And I heard a lot of people talking about that this was a step change, not like a big product release. And there also is discussion about, oh, does this get us closer to AGI and whatnot. I think it's important for OpenAI to get it right, but it doesn't appear to me that this is, there's been leapfrogging going on. You know, Opus 4.6, GPT 5.5, Opus 4.7, Opus 4.8. Everybody's been jumping each other with that. This, I'm not hearing people saying, oh my gosh, this is the new king. Okay, GPT, where's 5.6? Where are you going?
Or do you have another one? Do you see what I mean, Pat? It's more of a step change than it was like a cataclysmic jump. And what's a big deal is the people that like OpenAI and are supporting OpenAI and talking about GPT, they need it, all those proponents, they need it to be big because that's the jersey they're wearing.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:16)
Pomp?

**SPEAKER_3** (3:17)
So I'm going to use two direct examples. I saw a guy, Todd Saunders, and he tweeted the following. He said, This is unbelievable. I was on a customer call today, and I had Claude transcribing in the background. As the customer was telling me about the features they wish their current software had, Claude was building the features in real time. By the end of the call, I was able to show a fully working product with the exact workflow they mentioned 15 minutes earlier, autonomous looped building triggered from a customer call. This tweet right here, this one right here.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:45)
Show the video, Rob.

**SPEAKER_3** (3:46)
So just think about how crazy this is, what this guy is saying. He's saying he's on a call with a customer. While he's on the call with the customer, the system is listening to what the customer is saying the pain point is, and it is building a solution in real time. Before the call is over, now Todd says, hey, I got your solution for you. What do you think? You're telling me this stuff's not valuable?
I mean, this is crazy, right?

**SPEAKER_5** (4:08)
So this is Anthropic.

**SPEAKER_3** (4:09)
This is the Anthropic model. Now, could other models do some version of this? Sure. But I think that what a lot of folks already are talking about is Fable. Now the second example I'm going to use is Sylvia. So for those that don't know, Sylvia is an AI CFO that we've built. We've got thousands of multimillionaires that are on this thing. And what we see using this product is when we upgrade the model, people start asking more questions. Now what I think is most interesting about this is when you come in here, you are attaching your bank account, your brokerage, your crypto account, your credit cards, real estate, cars, collectibles, etc. And then you are talking to a model with the context of your personal portfolio. So if you go to Fable or you go to ChatGBT and you say, hey, listen, help me get my tax rate down, it doesn't know anything about your finances. But when you combine the power of these AI models with the persistent context of your portfolio, it becomes really powerful. So we've actually seen people go from asking six questions a week to now more than 15 questions per week. Why is that interesting?
