The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

Consciousness is autocatalytic: it feeds on the substrate conditions it creates. LLMs are not autocatalytic, their behavior only depends on the patterns they imitate. (The question whether LLM personas can experience phenomenonology is a completely different one though!)

@bcherny can we please get first class support for claude code on iOS? While useful, it still feels like it’s been just slapped on top of the regular chat when it comes to UI and UX. For instance there’s zero awareness of claude code commands and settings. And long lines of dashes which are meant as content separators just wrap around.

don’t people at @X dogfood the software they’re workin on? writing a comment on iOS shows just the first line after which everything you type is invisible. this has been going on for 1-2d already.

And the subsidies continue! Thank goodness. I don't want to have to return to the dark ages of coding by hand.
We've raised $65 billion in Series H funding at a $965 billion post-money valuation, led by @AltimeterCap, Dragoneer, @Greenoaks, and @sequoia. This investment will help us advance our research and expand our capacity to meet growing demand for Claude.

Jony Ive keeps designing Apple products everywhere.
Ferrari has released a new video of the interior for its first ever all-electric car, called the Ferrari Luce. It was designed with Apple's former head of design, Jony Ive, who recently said "a large touchscreen doesn't work in a car." Car info: • Four-door four-seater • 122 kWh battery • 330 miles of range (European rating methods) • 1,000 horsepower • 0-60mph: Under 2.5s • Four electric motors • OLED screens • Guess cluster screen is made up of several layers. By cutting out holes in the upper layers, Ferrari created displays where the speedometer graphic is below the level of a physical needle, which is itself behind additional drive info and beneath a curved inset lens. • Will have fake gear shifts • Weight: 5,100 lbs

one begins to question our prospects as a civilization when AI looks at us and concludes the intervention we need is being reminded to drink water.
NEW: Former GitHub CEO Nat Friedman says his OpenClaw AI agent watches him through a home camera to make sure he drinks enough water.

I took 1.7 million photos over 6 days to catch this photo of a commercial jet in front of the sun. The moment it happened, TWO floating prominences were visible, making this not just my best aircraft transit photo, but one of the luckiest of my career! Videos of the transit 👇

I think you are going to be very disappointed by this so called disclosure. It’ll likely be again just a bunch of useless videos.

fast fwd 2y: anthropic sues spacex for distilling claude into grok despite explicitly banning it in the partnership agreement.
We’ve agreed to a partnership with @SpaceX that will substantially increase our compute capacity. This, along with our other recent compute deals, means that we’ve been able to increase our usage limits for Claude Code and the Claude API.
