Anthropic bets on cheaper AI with new model

Anthropic, a San Francisco-based AI startup competing with OpenAI and Google, has launched a new AI model called Claude Opus 5. This model offers performance comparable to its more expensive counterpart, Fable 5, but at half the cost. The release addresses growing concerns among businesses about the high expenses associated with using advanced AI systems. Opus 5 consumes fewer computational resources and charges users $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. While Opus 5 performs similarly to Fable 5 in many areas, it lacks some of the advanced capabilities of Mythos 5, particularly in identifying and exploiting software vulnerabilities. Anthropic has implemented stricter safeguards around Mythos 5 due to its potential for misuse, leading to reduced intervention rates for Opus 5. Earlier in the year, export restrictions temporarily limited access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 before being lifted.
