The opacity and unpredictability of Anthropic is really starting to become more than just an annoyance. I'm glad they're extending access, but the roller coaster is really starting to cause whiplash.

If they're eventually going to add Fable to the subscription plan, I wish they'd say something about that now, or at least confirm if they don't plan to for awhile. The feeling I get is they don't want to make any announcements because they are flying by the seat of their pants and want to see what their competition does first.

Previously, access was set to expire today (July 7th)

It is theorized that OpenAI may time the release of GPT 5.6 in Codex to convert people who have lost access to Fable, so this is an interesting game theoric consequence.

Now I'm wondering if the 84% probability of GPT-5.6 release on polymarket on july 9th is about to drop substantially (in order to release while fable is at extra cost, like everyone seems to anticipate)? If they miss thursday release, does it mean they'll release Sol on next tuesday?

I was rushing to make the most of Fable today, and I'm at 67%, with limit reset on July 11th.

If would've used it more moderately if I had known in advance.

I have a really hard time understanding how anyone is ready to pay $200/mo to be put on such a rollercoaster all the time.

I've used fable, it's great. But nothing beats predictability - ever.

This truly feels like some form of emotional abuse/manipulation at this point.
