Anthropic's release of Claude Fable 5 came with the rollout of a series of safety measures, some of which modify the model without telling the user to protect the lab's current lead. Unevenly applied safety policies like this rarely work out. While Anthropic is well within its rights to implement these safeguards, its actions cultivate an 'us against them' dynamic within the AI ecosystem. These actions highlight the need for intelligence that users can trust, modify, and control.
