Claude's Fable 5 just got yanked, and the story why keeps shifting by the hour. A contested jailbreak, an export-control, crackdown, and a lot of fingers pointing.

This week on AI For Humans, Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 is still unavailable and the explanations keep changing. We dig into the contested jailbreak report, the export-control directive that pulled it, and the reporting that Amazon raised concerns before the crackdown. Then we get into why this matters far beyond one model: what happens when the government steps into the AI world, why Fable 5 was such a leap, and what it signals for whatever comes next. Plus, Epic's game designers are using AI tools alongside artists and the internet is furious, Disney Imagineering is testing Adobe Firefly in the parks, ChatGPT's market share slips under 50 percent for the first time, a fake Mistral model called Le Chaton Fat takes over the internet, and PJ Accetturo breaks down exactly how he made his viral AI short film with prompts.

THE BEST AI WE EVER USED IS BEHIND BARS. AND NOW WE WAIT.
