TL;DR Summary

Anthropic released Claude Opus 5, a cheaper model designed to deliver near-Fable-level performance on many tasks, priced at $5 per million input tokens and $25 per million output tokens. Opus 5 becomes the default Claude Max model across paid plans, with Fable 5 reserved for the most complex tasks. It adds a compute-adjustment dial and mid-task model switching to control costs, illustrating a rapid, multi-tier approach to AI deployment.
