An unverified rumor from @haider1 suggests Anthropic's fable 5.5 model could drop today or next week, timed to build hype ahead of a potential IPO.
He argues it will likely be too expensive for most subscription users — without API token subsidies, a few prompts could burn through a 5-hour session — leaving mainly enterprise customers willing to pay $50+/1M tokens as the practical audience.
