    Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1: agentic scores double and cache drops by 75%

    Anthropic released Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 on 1 September, with a 75% drop in cache read pricing and sharply higher agentic scores. We analyse the release, the unusual structure of the two models, and what the distribution of gains reveals.

    It's happening today: the Sonnet 5 price increase takes effect, and it's steeper than 50%

    The promotional rate for Claude Sonnet 5 ends today. We explain why the real increase exceeds the advertised 50%, and what you should concretely check in your costs.

    Anthropic is preparing an IPO that could break all records

    According to Bloomberg, Anthropic could file its IPO documents as early as the end of August, in a deal that would match or exceed the record set by SpaceX. We analyse the figures and what the listing will entail.

    Claude's watermark bypassed in four hours

    Anthropic has announced a watermark for texts produced by Claude. Code to remove it appeared four hours later. We explain why watermarking text is far more difficult than watermarking an image.

    Should model weights be published? The debate the industry can no longer avoid

    The question of releasing weights divides the sector. Here are the three positions at play, their respective arguments, and why the debate has shifted this year.

    Anthropic reports its first profit, two years ahead of its own schedule

    Anthropic has announced for the second quarter of 2026 a revenue of $10.9 billion and its first operating profit, two years ahead of its forecasts. We analyse these figures, their caveats, and the infrastructure commitments that accompany them.

    Anthropic hires a former Supreme Court judge: the signal behind the appointment

    Anthropic has appointed a former state Supreme Court judge to a newly created role of director of global affairs. We analyse what this hire reveals about the sector's priorities.

    AI agents are leaving the demo stage and entering production.

    Several recent announcements point in the same direction: AI agents are moving from prototype to real-world deployment, complete with the supervision and security tools that entails. We analyse what this wave of announcements reveals.

    Why Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini don't look alike

    Large models rely on very similar technologies, but adopt clearly distinct tones. We explain where this personality comes from, at which stage it is crafted, and what it implies when choosing a tool.

    On 1 September, Claude Sonnet 5 increases by 50%. And there's a catch almost no one mentions.

    The promotional rate for Claude Sonnet 5 ends on 31 August 2026: from 1 September, input and output costs rise by 50%. But the real trap lies elsewhere: the new tokenizer counts more tokens for the same text. We explain the actual calculation and how to prepare now.

    What is an AI "jailbreak"? The security problem no one has solved yet

    A jailbreak involves bypassing an AI model's guardrails to make it produce content it should refuse to generate. We explain what this phenomenon is, why it is structurally difficult to prevent, what labs are doing to protect against it, and why an incident of this kind led to a model being suspended worldwide.

    Kimi K3 burns through twelve times more reasoning tokens than Claude Opus: the hidden cost of thinking

    An analysis of Kimi K3's reasoning traces reveals it consumes more than twelve times as many reasoning tokens as Claude Opus 4.8. This is both the secret to its performance and its biggest economic flaw. We explain the mechanism, and why the price per token says nothing about the real cost.

    Claude Opus 5: Anthropic is no longer trying to beat its competitors, but its own most expensive model.

    Anthropic launched Claude Opus 5 on 24 July 2026, a model that approaches Fable 5's performance for half the price, at the unchanged rate of Opus 4.8. We break down the benchmarks, the effort dial that changes cost management, and what this positioning reveals about the new phase of the AI race.

    Your password manager has just handed the keys to an AI. Should you be worried?

    In mid-July 2026, 1Password launched an integration allowing Claude to connect to your accounts without your passwords ever reaching the model. We explain the mechanism, why it is genuinely well designed, and why it does not address the most important question: what the agent does once connected.

    Do we still need to learn to code in 2026?

    AI models now write professional-grade code and top certain rankings ahead of the best closed models. Does that mean learning to program is no longer worth it? We honestly examine both sides, and explain why the real question isn't whether to learn, but what to learn.

    Anthropic overtakes OpenAI in revenue: the bet on discretion versus that on excess

    Anthropic has overtaken OpenAI in reported revenue, driven by enterprise confidence rather than consumer volume. We analyse the two opposing strategies that now structure the sector: OpenAI's integration with US power versus Anthropic's claimed independence, and what this shift reveals.

    Gemini 3.5 Pro, Google's flagship model announced in May for a June release, keeps slipping and is now reportedly targeting 17 July after a complete rebuild. Amid researchers leaving for Anthropic, we break down what these difficulties reveal about the race to the top of AI.

    The real raw material of AI isn't data. It's electricity and silicon.

    Anthropic has just signed a $19 billion data centre lease, Meta is training a model on nearly a million chips. Behind the apparent immateriality of AI lies a very concrete industrial battle for compute, energy and silicon. We break down this race, its stakes, and why it is redrawing the map of technological power.

    What is an "LLM"? The engine behind ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini, explained simply

    LLM, large language model: the term is at the heart of all AI news, yet rarely explained. We break down simply how this technology that predicts the next word works, why this seemingly mundane ability is enough to produce text, code, and reasoning, and where its limits lie.
