We're making updates to Claude Fable 5's biology safeguards in a way that substantially reduces false positives.
Anthropic has updated its Claude Fable 5's biology safeguards to reduce false positives. According to the company, this update has cut biology-related "fallbacks" by around 85% in testing across product surfaces.
Anthropic is also making changes to Claude Code, with its auto mode set to become the default permission setting for users next week. This mode uses a classifier to check tool calls for irreversible or destructive actions, and can try a safer route or ask permission if something is blocked.
Additionally, Anthropic is building an in-house chip development team to co-design custom ASIC processors for handling AI inferencing workloads. The company is hiring engineers to design the chips with an unspecified partner, joining other major AI companies such as Google, Meta, and Microsoft in developing their own custom hardware.
