More of a meta comment, but I really wish anthropic would say something about their plans for Fable. We're all just kind of left here floating and aimless, with no idea of what to expect

They're kind of at the mercy of the US government on this, and the government seems to have them in the position you describe.

Agreed, though it sounds like they could add KYC stuff and restore access for US citizens. I utterly hate that we're at that point and I think it's ludicrous for privacy and just common sense, but it would be nice to know if that's their plan or not for example. Or if their plan is to just wait for the government to decide on something, or if they're planning to sue, or whatever.

I suspect so, I just got an email yesterday from Anthropic on their privacy policy update and they added:
> As part of our measures to keep our services safe and secure we may ask you to verify your age or identity, and we've described what we collect and how.
So yeah, ID verification is coming unfortunately. I wonder how that's going to work for team/business/enterprise plans? Is every individual corporate user going to have to submit their ID? How do they handle staying in compliance with the law with credential sharing that can happen within the company from the same IP address?

It's so great that the US is against AI regulation and gives corporations freedom to innovate /s

Well I would say you just chose ANOTHER sensible path with tradeoffs just like frontier API/subscriptions. Yes you get 100% control, cheaper inference, not having to stare at status.claude.com for like 2 hours per week, complete privacy (assuming local hosting or self hosting on servers).
But, you can’t get Fable level performance. OSS has reliably trailed the frontier by like 4-7 months for years now

The US Government has demanded a solution to the Halting Problem squared and by George (Washington) these tinpot facsists are going to get what they demand.
Hard to imagine where things go from here. GLM-5.3 will be released some day, with Fable class capabilities, and the (MAGA) US government will still be faffing around in their alt-reality cinematic bullshitiverse.

That's very impressive. What's the best way to run these kernels natively on a Mac? I saw that there's a way to plug Claude into Apple's Foundation Models framework, and there's a CLI tool that can access models via that framework. It might be useful to have something so fast and good available via a small CLI tool for various purposes, especially when connected with a small suite of tools I have for things like file editing, showing, simple agentic purposes etc.

Either ollama or omlx, both are pretty dang performant. Omlx lets you run Claude code locally though as long as you bootstrap it with the right model

Why would you need Omlx? For speed up?

Has extra KV cache on SSD, and lots more options to tweak. There's experimental TurboQuant and multi token prediction support.

It's not immediately clear, but this seems to be 250 tok/s on an M4 Max.
For comparison, the current agent swarm challenge on HF is at 508 tok/s on a A10G GPU:
apologies for a dumb question, is this someone running fable5 on their own machine and it pushed to 255 tok/s? How is that possible (how did a person acquire the model?)

I'm assuming it means that someone used Fable 5 to implement Gemma 4 in WebGPU and it performs at 255 tok/s

Wow. Limitnig access to models for other reasons than that you can't physically provide it should be a crime against humanity or the planet or something. So much immediate efficency left on the table for stupid reasons.

I miss Fable. It worked so well -- it was so confident and would actually make decisions on its own that I agreed with -- Opus 4.8 feels so dumb now.
