Anthropic released Claude Fable 5 today, and it's a bit different from the usual model bump.
It's not a bigger Opus - it's a new tier above Opus, built on the same underlying model as Mythos, the one Anthropic had locked behind a government cybersecurity program since April.
Hey Product Hunters and Makers, All AIs seem super powerful, but I'm curious what's their speciality? In the comments section, define your use case and the AI that you use to solve the use case. For example, for copywriting, I prefer Gemini or Claude, not ChatGPT. Let the AI battle commence! P.S. I hunted Chaturji today! Chaturji allows you to access all AIs (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, etc.) for free on one single platform. Check it out here: https://www.producthunt.com/post...
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.8 yesterday, and from the announcement it looks like a solid upgrade over 4.7. Here s what stood out to me:
Better judgment on agentic tasks early testers say it catches its own mistakes, pushes back on bad plans, and flags uncertainties instead of bulldozing through
~4x less likely to let code flaws pass unremarked compared to Opus 4.7
Dynamic Workflows in Claude Code can now orchestrate hundreds of parallel subagents for codebase-scale migrations
Effort control you can now choose how hard the model thinks on each response (from fast/light to max effort)
Fast mode is 3x cheaper than it was for previous models
Same pricing as Opus 4.7: $5/M input, $25/M output
Transfer your preferences, projects, and context from other AI providers into Claude. With one copy-paste, Claude updates its memory and picks up right where you left off. Memory is available on all paid plans. Switch without losing what makes your AI useful.
Claude Code Routines runs AI coding automations on Anthropic-managed infrastructure, triggered by schedule, API call, or GitHub event to autonomously review PRs, triage backlogs, or verify deployments without keeping your laptop open. You don't need to manage cron jobs or servers manually. For engineering teams on Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plans.
Anthropic’s Claude can now operate your computer like a human—clicking, typing, browsing, and running apps autonomously. With “computer use” and Dispatch, you can assign tasks from your phone and let Claude execute them on your Mac. From emails to reports, it bridges AI reasoning with real-world action.
I like Claude Code a lot, but one thing still feels weirdly opaque to me: token burn while you are deep in a session.
When I am iterating fast, the bill usually shows up after the fact. By then I already made the expensive choices. Long context, repeated retries, and bouncing between models can get surprisingly costly before you really notice it.
Message Claude from your phone.
It runs on your desktop, touches your files, browses, builds reports, executes tasks. Sandboxed. Local.
You approve before it acts.
One persistent conversation.
