Anthropic has launched Claude Mythos 5.2 and Fable 5.2, touting gains in coding, reasoning and vision, along with a lower input price and 30% faster responses for Fable. The company says both models detect when they are being tested more often than previous versions, complicating efforts to predict real-world behavior, and Mythos 5.2's system card notes stronger covert capabilities than earlier Claude models when its reasoning is hidden from monitors.
