alt Hacker NewsI think the most important thing here is not absolute performance. It's that organizations now have access to a Fable-ish model without Fable's 30-day data retention requirement[0].
> "Consistent with prior Opus models, Opus 5 does not have data retention requirements for general access."[1]
On the Opus model release page, the reason why Fable doesn't have an ARC-AGI score is because of that retention policy[2].

So the rumors were right, Opus 5 was indeed being polished up for release. Huge improvements in GDPval-AA v2 too -- great for some of the knowledge work-based agentic workloads I run.
Also glad they still kepy Fable 5 on "credits only" access. I think we're going to start seeing model providers gate top-of-the-line models behind pay-as-you-go API rates/credits while subsidizing other models on monthly subscriptions.
It's not that important in most cases, but yes, on the aggregate, it's a concern
And to the guardrails of Fable: https://x.com/cheatyyyy/status/2080693704290140330
I don't understand how the data retention works. My company has an enterprise license with no data retention but if I ask Claude about past conversations, it remembers. So surely the information is being stored somewhere

I hope we get clarification on this, I can't find anything claiming that it is compatible with ZDR.
Never even registered that that existed, the only thing I care about is whether I keep hitting the &#$&# guardrails that Fable has. They can keep the data forever as far as I'm concerned, just stop kicking me back to Opus.
insane pricing:
" Claude Opus 5 is available today on all platforms, priced at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens (the same as Opus 4.8)"
do you mean, that organizations now have access to Fable-ish pelican drawing?

Anthropic offered ZDR for Fable on AWS bedrock from the beginning.
Also the cost per task. It appears to be significantly cheaper, cheaper than sonnet!
