By

Hand-rolled, kettle-boiled, baked to perfection. Worth every minute at the bakery.
Summary
Anthropic reversed a controversial policy on its Claude Fable 5 AI model that would have covertly restricted competitors from using the model to develop other AI systems. The company changed course after significant backlash from the AI research community, acknowledging they made the wrong tradeoff and apologizing for not getting the balance right. The safeguards for frontier LLM development will now be made visible rather than covert.
