A discussion thread speculating about frontier model capability timelines:
- The poster says that if the earlier claim was about Fable, then a Fable-by-end-of-2026 target now looks conservative.
- They add that Anthropic is already beyond that bar.
- In the reply context, the thread also mentions a Zhipu “Opus killer” / Fable rival and suggests that 5.6 or 5.7 could plausibly qualify as the announced “mythos class.”
