Claude Fable 5’s Capabilities In PCB Design Might Be Limited, But One Person Shows It’s Actually Possible By Showing Off A Custom Board Made Entirely By AI, At A Cost

11 September 2026 at 20:11

Claude Fable 5 designed an entire PCB from scratch

The use of AI has enabled users to obtain feats that were never thought possible, such as vibe-coding a game featuring 27,000 lines of code, or enabling software compatibility between macOS and an HP printer without official software. New possibilities are being stumbled upon daily. For Claude Fable 5’s newest accomplishment, a user designed and manufactured an entire working PCB from scratch, but the process was far from perfect. To achieve a PCB design from start to finish costs $450 in API credits alone, making it a fun, but pricey project After going nowhere with advanced AI models like Opus 4.5 […]

AI model routers are emerging as one of the biggest threat vectors for data security, as evidenced by a shocking anecdote from a researcher, who was able to uncover a veritable treasure trove from a data dump on routing sessions related to Anthropic's Claude, with grave ramifications for vulnerable Chinese government entities and companies such as Huawei and Xiaomi. According to a researcher, just 6TB of data dump gleaned from routing sessions related to Anthropic's Claude can yield enough valuable credentials to hack top Chinese government agencies and companies For the benefit of those who might not be aware, LLM […]

Anthropic Beats OpenAI To The Punch With A Nominally Cheaper Claude Fable 5.1, As Samsung Bets Its Chip Designs On Claude Code

1 September 2026 at 20:10

The image shows the text 'Claude Fable 5.1' over a gradient background with hues of black, blue, and pink.

In the ongoing seemingly never-ending one-upmanship between Anthropic and OpenAI, the former has just taken an incremental step forward by releasing the Claude Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 models ahead of OpenAI's much-anticipated Astra-class ones. Meanwhile, Anthropic's Claude Code - the coding-focused harness around its models - has just received a resounding endorsement from an unexpected quarter: Samsung's chip design-focused LSI division. Anthropic's Claude Fable 5.1 model offers a respectable 4-point jump over Fable 5 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, while entailing lower API prices Anthropic has just launched the Claude Fable 5.1 model to moderate acclaim. Do note […]

Kimi K3 Shows An Uncanny Affinity To The Reasoning Patterns Of Claude Opus, As A New Study Hands The Trump Administration A Smoking Gun

11 August 2026 at 20:12

The image features the text 'Kimi K3' prominently displayed with a colorful gradient background.

It is one of the most divisive topics in the AI sphere right now, with far-reaching geopolitical implications as a grave add-on: did Moonshot distill its Kimi K3 model from Anthropic's model? Most detractors point to the ~2 week window between the public rollout of Fable and Kimi K3 to suggest that an expansive distillation is virtually impossible here. But, a newly discovered API vulnerability might just be the smoking gun US-based AI labs have been looking for. Moonshot's Kimi K3 demonstrated an unusually high statistical probability of predicting and continuing Claude's text versus other open-weight models like DeepSeek-V4-Flash AI […]

AMD Has Begun Sampling MI450 GPUs & Also Engaged With Customers On MI500, Largest AI Deployments Are For Inference

AMD and Anthropic have announced a strategic partnership to deploy up to 2 Gigawatts of AMD Instinct MI450 GPUs through Helios AI racks. Helios AI Racks With Instinct MI450 GPUs See Major 2GW Partnership AMD Bags Anthropic As Strategic Partner A few months ago, we reported that AMD was in talks with a major AI firm to secure them as a customer for the upcoming Instinct MI450 series GPUs, the chips powering the Helios AI rack-scale system. Today, that customer is officially announced by AMD, and as such, Anthropic will become one of the company's key partners moving forward to […]

China’s Kimi K3 Identifies Itself As Anthropic’s Claude In At Least One Conversation, Betraying Its Distilled Origins

17 July 2026 at 14:49

Moonshot's Kimi K3 AI model has suddenly taken the world by storm, jumping to the apex spot in Arena's front-end code rankings seemingly out of the blue. Yet, below the surface, a growing quantum of anecdotal evidence indicates that the Kimi K3 has been distilled from Anthropic's Claude, with the model going so far as to identify itself as such in at least one conversation that is doing the rounds on social media. The Kimi K3 model's training and inference cost efficiency is poles apart, which indicates an underlying discrepancy As we explained in a recent post, Moonshot has just […]

Anthropic Now Thinks Claude Has A Soul, As Evidence Emerges Of “Convergent Evolution” Between AI And The Human Brain

6 July 2026 at 21:42

A humanoid robot stands between two people in a futuristic corridor labeled 'Section 6A'.

If you are a millennial, chances are that you must have watched the 2004 sci-fi film I, Robot, where an NS-5 humanoid robot and the V.I.K.I supercomputer develop consciousness. Well, Anthropic now thinks something comparable, but far less dramatic, is taking place within its Claude AI model. The background blurb Most of the synapses firing up in your brain right now are performing automatic, involuntary tasks, such as regulating breathing, processing vision, etc. Even so, a tiny fraction of these synspses is "consciously accessible," and relates to thoughts that you can "describe, hold in mind, and reason with." This is […]

Tim Sweeney Admits Epic’s Unreal Engine AI Tools Risk ‘AI slop’, but Calls them an Accelerant for Real Creators

25 June 2026 at 17:30

Epic president Tim Sweeney wearing glasses and a dark jacket is speaking in front of a glowing logo featuring a stylized Unreal Engine 6 logo.

At last week's Unreal Fest in Chicago, Epic Games unveiled the integration of AI tools like Claude and Gemini into Unreal Engine 5.8 (and the upcoming Unreal Engine 6) through an MCP server. As with all things related to AI, the news received a somewhat mixed response from the development and gaming community, especially as fears of "AI slop" become rampant. In an interview with IGN, Epic Games founder, CEO, and majority shareholder Tim Sweeney admitted that there's the risk of that, but likened it to the "asset flip" of this new generation of games, asserting that low quality games […]

The image shows the logos of 'Unreal Engine 6' and 'Unreal Editor for Fortnite' with a plus sign and the number '6' on a black background.

During the State of Unreal 2026 presentation, streamed live from Chicago's Unreal Fest, Epic Games announced the launch of Unreal Engine 5.8 and also talked in depth about the upcoming Unreal Engine 6, first teased last month during the Rocket League Championship Series 2026 in Paris. Founder, CEO, and majority shareholder Tim Sweeney took the stage to explain that UE6 is about evolving how games are shipped and operated, not just improving rendering or world-building: The vision is that if you build things once in Unreal Engine 6, then you can have a game you can ship everywhere, including the […]

Apple Is Now Penalizing Its Internal Teams That Don’t Use Enough AI In Their Workflow

13 April 2026 at 18:11

An illuminated Apple logo is displayed on the facade of an Apple Store.

Apple appears to be doubling down on Claude AI in its internal workflows, going so far as to penalize low token consumption, as per new anecdotal evidence. Some of Apple's internal teams now have a daily budget of around $300 worth of Claude AI tokens, with low token consumption increasingly singled out As per an anecdote, Apple's global sourcing teams on the business development side have received a daily budget of as much as $300 worth of tokens for Claude AI over the past few weeks. What's more, backfill requests are now increasingly predicated on a given team's overall AI […]

Intel Bartlett Lake Core 9 273PQE Posts On A Consumer Z790 Motherboard Through BIOS Mod By A PC Enthusiast

30 March 2026 at 15:25

A close-up of an Intel Core 9 processor, model '273PQE,' alongside an illustrated Intel Core chip graphic.

It seems that running the newly launched edge CPU on a regular Z790 motherboard can work if you can tweak the BIOS just right. User Makes Running Intel P-Core-Only Bartlett Lake CPU on a Mainstream Z890 Motherboard Possible Through BIOS Modded by Claude The dream of getting Intel's only 12 P-Core Bartlett Lake CPU running on a consumer LGA 1700 motherboard is coming true. The Bartlett Lake Core 9 273PQE, which we saw sitting on a white ASUS LGA 1700 motherboard a few weeks ago, can also run on it, provided you are skilled enough to tweak the BIOS. Fortunately, […]
