It's a huge win for Dario. Opus 4.8 < GPT 5.5 < Fable 5. So the legal ceiling will be GPT 5.5 or lower. This solves the compute crisis, especially for Anthropic. It alleviates the competitive pressure, because they and OpenAI can now enter their monopolistic era where they can finally start phoning it in, except for very lucrative gov contracts. Dario also gets to cash in from all the self-mythologizing due to the IPO without having to keep up an unsustainable level of capital expenditure. China has also effectively stopped the open weights export before Qwen could advance to frontier model performance. So open weights is basically dead in a market where only giant players can exist to begin with. Chinese and American governments hold all the cards now. Unless this pressure can jumpstart a true technological jump in open source, this is it. I was hoping for more time until we get to this point tbh.
