Summary: 

Claude Fable 5 and Mythos are here, and they've quietly split the AI world in two. In this episode I break down exactly what these models are, why most people are only getting Fable and not Mythos, and what the June 22nd deadline actually means for your access. The hierarchy has shifted: it no longer goes Opus, Sonnet, Haiku. There's a new tier above all of that, and it costs significantly more than your current subscription.The uncomfortable truth is that $200 a month now puts you in the lower class of AI user. The models capable of genuinely transformative work are heading toward pay-per-use pricing at roughly $40 an hour, and only businesses with serious cash flow will run them at scale. I cover what this bifurcation means practically, who it affects, and how to get the most out of Fable while you still have free access.
