Epoch AI reports that Claude Fable 5.2 set a new record of 174 on its Capabilities Index (ECI), surpassing GPT-6 Astra's previous high of 169 and beating the pre-Astra trendline for reasoning models. Epoch ties this to recent discussion of AI contributions to AI R&D and plans to release more work soon. Scores are based on pre-launch testing with Epoch's own benchmarks and may change as the ECI updates.
