Anthropic is bringing its most powerful AI model to the general public for the first time, but it’s doing it with guardrails.  On Tuesday, the AI firm launched Claude Fable 5, the first publicly available version of its Mythos model. Anthropic says Fable 5 excels at software engineering, knowledge work, and vision, but it comes with hard safety limits. In high-risk areas like cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, and distillation, the model blocks responses and falls back to Claude Opus 4.8. Launched as a preview in April, Mythos was initially limited to a handful of partners due to cybersecurity concerns. Last week,…

Anthropic has released Claude Fable 5, the first publicly available version of its closely watched Mythos model. What can Fable actually do? All kinds of things, it turns out. Ethan Mollick, a notable AI researcher and University of Pennsylvania scholar, has been playing around with the model and seems to be having a lot of fun. In his testing, Fable consistently “outperformed basically every other public model I have used by a considerable margin,” Mollick wrote Tuesday on his Substack.

Unregulated online sales of portable ultrasound devices are facilitating covert sex-determination and abortion networks in India, write Jigyasa Mishra and Mahima Jain. [Baghpat, Jhunjhunu, Bengaluru/India] When Manisha* was offered an illegal sex-determination test in India’s desert state of Rajasthan she was two-and-a-half months pregnant with her second child. The man who approached her was an agent for ultrasound scanning services from Rajasthan’s Jhunjhunu district who offered her a discounted rate for determining the sex of the fetus. Prenatal sex determination is illegal in India, where many families still prefer a son. Since Manisha’s firstborn is a girl, she was an…

The rise of artificial intelligence is riding on the back of an enormous data center expansion. Data centers are projected to account for anywhere from 9 to 17 percent of total electricity usage in the U.S. by the end of the decade. Today, around a third of data center electricity is devoted to cooling the chips that run AI models.That’s the process Ferveret is working to make more efficient. The startup, founded by Reza Azizian, a former MIT postdoc in nuclear engineering, and Matteo Bucci, MIT’s Esther and Harold E. Edgerton Associate Professor in the Department of Nuclear Science and…

The change – for an intake of 15 instead of 30 in September this year and next year – has been approved by the Office of the Schools Adjudicator. According to Brighton and Hove City Council records, since 2022 the school has allocated places…
