Claude Fable 5 Prompt Injection Jailbreak Resistance
Anthropic has released Claude Fable 5 with a classifier-based safety layer that routes flagged offensive cyber, bio, and model-distillation requests to a weaker fallback model, while reserving full capabilities in a twin model (Mythos 5) for vetted defenders. The architecture represents a novel approach to dual-use AI risk mitigation but introduces measurable false-positive friction and raises questions about the robustness of classifier-only defences. An external bug bounty of over 1,000 hours found no universal jailbreak, though the conservative tuning and <5% fallback rate leave open questions about real-world bypass rates under adversarial pressure.
