Fable 5.5 may land the same week as Gemini 4 Carbon
The author bets Anthropic ships Fable 5.5 on Tuesday, possibly alongside GPT-6.1 Terra and Gemini 4 Carbon, seeing the IPO as the motive for an early launch.
🚨 Anthropic's next big model might be closer than we think. Report says Anthropic is about to release a new model with sharper reasoning and intuition, and it can tell what you actually want even when you barely explain it. My bet is Fable 5.5, and since Fable 5.1 also dropped on a Tuesday, tomorrow wouldn't surprise me. But honestly, the only reason I see to launch it now is the upcoming IPO. Opus 5.5 is already the best model out there with no real competitor. They should hold Fable 5.5 until a serious rival shows up, like Astra 6.1. And it may not come alone: > Fable 5.5 > GPT-6.1 Terra > Gemini 4 Carbon Add the next wave of Chinese models and this could be the craziest week in AI yet.
