  • The compute theory: Mythos is a huge, expensive model to run. Anthropic didn’t have enough compute to release it fully. It has since struck huge new compute deals, which may have helped it release Fable 5 and Mythos 5 on Tuesday.
  • The competitive theory: AI companies increasingly worry about something called distillation. When a frontier model is released, rivals can collect its outputs and use that data to improve their own systems. Anthropic may have wanted to keep its best capabilities out of competitors’ hands for as long as possible, especially from open-source rivals and fast-moving Chinese AI labs.
