I've heard a lot of questions about Fable's availability on subscription plans.
While it will come off subscriptions after July 7th, we aim to restore Fable as a standard part of our subscriptions as soon as capacity allows, as we mentioned in our original blog post.

Fableが明日帰ってくる!Opus 4.8にフォールバックされまくるとかになってたら嫌だな〜(サブスクで使えるのは1週間かつサブスクの50%まで)
> Users will be notified if a request to Fable 5 is blocked, and the request will instead be sent to Opus 4.8
Claude Fable 5 will be available again globally tomorrow.
After a series of productive conversations with the US government, we're redeploying the model with a new set of classifiers to target and block more cybersecurity tasks. In the near term, some routine tasks like coding and debugging will fall back to Opus 4.8. We’ll continue to refine these classifiers over the coming weeks to reduce false positives and better distinguish genuine misuse from legitimate requests.
We’ve also begun drafting a consensus framework—with Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and other Glasswing partners—for assessing the severity of AI jailbreaks and how AI developers should respond to them. We invite other industry partners and model providers to join us in this effort.
Finally, we’re scaling up our collaboration with the US government on model testing and safeguards. This will include pre-release access to models and safeguards for evaluation, information sharing on jailbreaks and misuse, and dedicated resources for joint research.
Thank you to our users for your patience, and to our partners across the government, industry, and the research community who worked alongside us to make Fable 5 available again.

Introducing Claude Sonnet 5, our most agentic Sonnet yet.
It makes plans, uses tools like browsers and terminals, and runs autonomously at a level that just a few months ago required larger and more expensive models.
Introducing Nano Banana 2 Lite 🍌 and Gemini Omni Flash 🔮, our new generative media models in the Gemini API and AI Studio!
Nano Banana 2 Lite is extremely fast (<4s image) & cheap ($0.034 / 1K image).
Omni Flash is SOTA at video editing at $0.10 / sec, same as Veo 3.1 Fast!
Claude Desktop is now available on Linux (Ubuntu and Debian) in beta.
Alongside the browser and terminal, you now get a first-class desktop experience with Claude Code, Claude Cowork, and chat on all paid plans.
Rumors about Sonnet 5 have been circulating for a long time.
Now it looks like Sonnet 5 will be released alongside the re-release of Fable 5 (presumably with ID verification).
This leaves a bad taste in my mouth, because it raises the possibility that those who might not be able to access Fable 5 (in Europe?) will essentially get a much weaker alternative in Sonnet 5.
I might be wrong, I even hope so. But I have a bad feeling about it.
