Feels like Fable was just a short story to teach us all a lesson.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

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.

@Exseedmarketing @_TommyMason Actually, you could say that about the Ferrari too!

@TanzilaSha9574 We use @SalableApp - but I might be biased :)

The more I learn about software billing, the more I think "taking payment" is the easy bit.

I recently joined @SalableApp, which sits on top of Stripe and helps software teams add pricing, plans, subscriptions and access control into their products.

I've learned you end up having to answer product questions like:

- What happens after someone upgrades?
- What changes when they downgrade?
- How should access work across a team?
- What happens when a renewal fails?
- How do you test all of this safely?

That’s the kind of billing logic Salable handles, instead of every team having to build and maintain it themselves.

I’d love to hear from people building software with paid plans. Has it been easy, painful, confusing or surprisingly hard?

@Shpigford I’ve been trying it. I like it! (Though I’d like to be customise the review action).

But maybe OpenAi’s forthcoming ChatGPT/Codex app is going to bake most of this functionality in?

@Shpigford I’d love an iOS app so I could continue reading and chatting from my phone

@lennysan Hey Claude, teach me how to maintain grounds.

@sophiebradshaw @ParcelPending I got a notification on my phone about this tweet: “Sophie posted for the first time in a while.”

Don’t you just love X. 😆

PS, good luck with the return!

Is it just me or is the renaming of Clawdbot to Moltbot the most successful rebrand in history? Everyone has just accepted it, which never normally happens on Twitter.

[James Lewis @jameslewis]

Ok, have given Ralph a try and it’s going well. I’ve basically asked Claude to find ways to maximise the production at my paperclip factory.

Gonna get some sleep now and see where it’s got to in the morning.

@tim_cook What’s in the rave cookies?

[James Lewis @jameslewis]

@CasJam I wonder if more water used for the showers or cooling the GPUs?

If only we could invent a more environmentally friendly way to generate ideas.

Day after yesterday.

[DHH @dhh]

Today.

Can’t wait for F2!

[James Lewis @jameslewis]

@rafalyovson @codepo8 I’ll toast to that!

@KioG You’re just saying that so when, in the near future, the AI reads our tweets to see who to cull, you’ll be saved
