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…

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day. 400 of them are now worth over $100 million. These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries. Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000. Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous." The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before. Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

⚡️ Step 3.7 Flash is here: The new frontier is agent efficiency. #1 ClawEval-1.1 (67.1), #1 SimpleVQA Search (79.2), #2 SWE-PRO (56.3), 95.3 on V* Python. Open weights under Apache 2.0. Built for agentic, coding, search, and multimodal workflows — balancing speed, cost, and reliable execution. - 400 TPS. 198B sparse MoE, ~11B active. 256K context, 3 reasoning levels. - Understands UIs, charts, docs, images — then writes code or calls tools to act on what it sees. - Web visual search reaches further: more sources, deeper follow-up. - Reliable tool use — less drift, fewer broken toolcalls. 98% on τ²-bench across all difficulty levels. - Works with Claude Code, KiloCode, Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and protocols like MCP. - Runs locally on Mac Studio M4 Max, DGX Spark, AMD AI Max 395.
