I've never felt the permanent underclass more than today

Users accused Anthropic of dishonestly limiting access to top models and removing Fable 5 from subscriptions, leaving regular users worse off, while hoping competition and open-source would improve things.

Fable 5 might actually be sabotaging your code lmao

well at least in the near future

as the screenshot shows they clearly still want to give you access *sometime* but who knows when that is

@scaling01 Don't worry. Competition is coming.

@scaling01 Competition in the AI field will certainly keep pushing the bar higher and higher, and if Anthropic limits its AI, someone else will do the opposite.

@scaling01 fwiw Boris Cherny just addressed the subscription part — the plan IS to keep Fable 5 in subscriptions, they're being extra conservative at launch because demand is hard to forecast. free until June 22, then credits while they scale. less underclass, more rate-limiting.

@scaling01 As for costs, it’s only a matter of time: the growth of computing capacity, chip power, and the reduction of the related costs over time will make these technologies increasingly accessible.

@PaulC85_ @scaling01 Don't you think those of which you mentioned can be monopolized as well?

@devops_arif @scaling01 Personally, I believe that we ordinary people would only get a distilled version of AI.

@scaling01 I will remain so very low bar.

So low a dumpster could not light me a blaze.

Weight them all out.

@scaling01 open-source will push it anyways

@scaling01 the capacity constraint is a real infrastructure problem. the capability throttling for frontier LLM work is a different thing entirely - that's anthropic deciding who gets to compete with anthropic

@wyqtor @scaling01 Sama and Elon are our only hope at this point. I would include Gemini but after the 3.5 Flash mess of a model idk anymore. And yeah Grok 4.3 is trash too but the 6t and 10t models are cooking so we will see.

@scaling01 deliberately degrading outputs for certain use cases while charging full price is a new tier of product honesty

@devops_arif @scaling01 The truly game-changing models, the ones capable of genuinely shifting the balance of power, in my view will never be made available to all of us (unfortunately, that’s the greedy-egoic nature of human beings: a few command, many are commanded :/)
