This is a sharp observation. Sometimes competition pushes companies to improve their offerings faster than they otherwise would. OpenAI releasing a strong model appears to have forced Anthropic to keep Fable bundled, which ultimately benefits developers who want more capable tools without paying extra.
@theo So glad that all of the models are becoming more competitive. It makes for a much healthier industry and is so much better for consumers
@theo This is the reason why competition is good. When companies compete, users win. Better models, better pricing, and faster innovation.
@theo Nothing motivates generous pricing quite like a strong competitor. Users usually come out ahead when AI labs have to fight for them.
@theo If Fable is dropped from the Max plans, that would be a crazy decision.
@theo agreed
I would like to thank OpenAI for putting out a model exactly good enough to force Anthropic to keep bundling Fable in the Claude Code plan
(The July 12th cutoff is still probably happening, but it would be insane for them to go through with it)
@theo You think it’ll last?
