[River AI @river_ai_inc]

We are incredibly excited to announce River AI. Our mission is to create personal AI that is owned and shaped by you.

Today’s best AIs are controlled by a few large corporations. We are building the alternative: a new, personal stack for AI that works entirely for you, shares your values, and operates on your terms.

This is a super exciting release - Claude Fable 5 is the same underlying model as Mythos but with added safeguards. The benchmarks are great and it's SOTA on everything by a margin but I'll add that *qualitatively* also, this is a major-version-bump-deserving step change forward (imo of the same order as Claude 4.5 was in November), peaking especially for long problem-solving sessions on very difficult problems. You can give it a lot more ambitious tasks than what you're used to, the model "gets it" and it will just go, and it's never felt this tempting to stop looking at the code at all (but don't do this in prod!). The model still has quirks that people will run into and the safeguards are configured to be a little too trigger happy for launch, which can hopefully be tuned over time.

I feel a lot of things changing as working software increasingly comes out on a tap. The Jevon's paradox kicks in and I feel my own demand for software growing substantially. You can ask for anything - explainers, visualizers, dashboards, bespoke single-use apps (e.g. a full wandb that is hyper-specific just for your project), you can 10X your test suite, auto-optimize code, run giant research projects with custom HTML for the results, anything! "Free your mind" (Matrix ref). Really looking forward to all the things people build!

Introducing Claude Fable 5: a Mythos-class model that we’ve made safe for general use.

Its capabilities exceed those of any model we’ve ever made generally available.

@Karenalexphi What is the earliest record of these complex patterns?

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

claude mythos just broke Apple's $2 billion defense system. it did so by discovering a completely different attack vector to break in

only took it 5 days costing ~$35K of mythos api time (the same exploit class costs $5-10M on grey market)

the researchers that commandeered the exploit produced a 55-page report that was delivered to Apple HQ in-person (hoping they release it after patching).

most shocking part for me is apple's MIE worked as intended. mythos just discovered a new way to side-step it entirely by poisoning the data the M5 chip ingested.

at this point i think we have to accept that mythos walks the walk.

As the anthropic red-team explicitly confirmed this week - this is NOT a compute resource issue. its national defense.

🚨 ÚLTIMA HORA: El cofundador de Google DeepMind acaba de anunciar 2.100 millones de dólares para curar todas las enfermedades.

Demis Hassabis lleva años construyendo la IA que dobla proteínas, diseña moléculas y acelera el descubrimiento de medicamentos. Isomorphic Labs es su apuesta para que la IA resuelva lo que la medicina convencional no ha conseguido en décadas.

2.100 millones. Una sola misión.

The UK just signaled it wants regulatory alignment with the US on digital assets. This is a bigger deal than most people realize.

🇺🇸BREAKING: Someone placed a $920 million crude oil short at 3:40 AM.

70 minutes later Axios reported the US and Iran were close to a deal.

Oil dropped 12%.

The trade made $125 million in profit.

Minutes after that Iran launched the “Persian Gulf Strait Authority” and oil surged 8%.

$760 million placed before Trump’s last announcement.

$920 million placed before this one.

Every major announcement in this war has been front-run by someone who knew it was coming.

What kind of war is this?

This is more like a trading desk with an army.

Never stop connecting the dots.

SpaceXAI will provide @AnthropicAI with access to Colossus 1, one of the world’s largest and fastest-deployed AI supercomputers, to provide additional capacity for Claude → https://t.co/nfDR9S822L

[Claude @claudeai]

Effective today, we are:

1) Doubling Claude Code’s 5-hour rate limits for Pro, Max, and Team plans;

2) Removing the peak hours limit reduction on Claude Code for Pro and Max plans; and

3) Substantially raising our API rate limits for Opus models.

@Speculator_io 3 months ago it was mostly “own the GPU makers.”

Now leadership is optics, photonics, memory, power and interconnects.

The market seems to be realising the next AI bottleneck isn’t just compute, it’s moving data, bandwidth, cooling and power delivery at scale.
