Developer haider notes Anthropic's fable 5.5 is taking longer to arrive than expected — the 5.5 family was assumed to ship in quick succession, but fable has yet to appear, perhaps overshadowed by how strong Opus 5.5 is. He adds that Google's rumored gemini carbon missed its window to ride the hype by staying unreleased. (Unverified industry speculation.)
