.Anthropic finally ended the Fable 5 limbo this weekend...

And your plan landed on one side of a very sharp line.

Here's the split, effective yesterday:

✅ Max and Team Premium... Fable 5 is now PERMANENTLY included. Capped at 50% of your weekly limits.

❌ Pro and Team Standard... Fable is GONE from your plan. You get a one-time $100 credit... Then it's $10/$50 per million tokens.

So check which side you're on before your next big session. ⚠️

Now...

The part that's genuinely surreal.

The replies under the announcement...

"Thank you for the clarity!"

"Appreciate the update!"

People are THANKING them. 🤡

If you've been reading this newsletter, you watched every chapter of this circus...

The government freeze.

Three deadline extensions.

Rationing.

2am plan changes.

They made a mess for five straight weeks...

Then announced the mess is now "standard"...

And people are cheering.

This is Stockholm syndrome in real time.

You don't thank a restaurant for announcing your meal is now permanently half-sized. 😅

Before anyone calls me a hater...

I have 2x max 20x plans.

I use Anthropic models DAILY across my workflows.

I run the BEST Claude Community in the world...

1.4+ million members, growing 30,000+ every week.

I'm not a hater.

This is FEEDBACK.

People ask how I can criticize Anthropic while being such a Claude fanboy...

It's because I actually care.

If I didn't...

I wouldn't bother.

Anthropic makes world-class models.

But their rollouts, communication, and customer experience are a mess...

And praising them for it doesn't help anyone.

Not them...

And definitely not us. 🫡

When Sundar Pichai asked developers to "give us until next month" for Gemini 3.5 Pro at Google I/O in May...

The room audibly groaned.

That was three missed deadlines ago... 👇

"Stockholm syndrome" comes from a 1973 bank robbery in Stockholm...

Where hostages spent six days in a vault and came out DEFENDING the robbers.

Some even refused to testify against them.

Fifty years later... The vault is a usage dashboard. 😅

My agent got tired of my face... So I fixed it 🎨

Real talk... Character consistency in AI images is a nightmare.

Same prompt, same reference photo...

Five different versions of your face.

So I got tired of it and did something about it.

I took the best character-consistency guides I could find online...

And had my OpenClaw agent TEST them.

All of them.

It found the winning method...

Built a "Character Board" with each approach to prove it…

Then turned the best practices into a skill ALL my agents now share.

Total time: 20 minutes. 🤯

It ran the bake-off on OpenAI Image 2 vs Grok Imagine...

And it wasn't even close. Image 2 is just SO good right now.

(I really wish Claude did image gen... But that's not what it's built for, so I get it.)

The skill is so dialed that this one sentence...

"Let's do an object board for a 3D version of the Savage Marketer logo that's a light-up sign... I want it to be a realistic 3D sign."

...Produced a full product sheet. Orthographic views, light states, close-ups, scale shots.

My man Beau (my AI persona) wrote up the whole system... Boards, methods, prompts included.

Steal it 👉 here.

This is the gap right now, by the way...

Everyone can generate images.

Almost nobody can generate the SAME character twice.

The businesses that need this — brands, games, content teams — don't even know it's solvable...

Which makes it exactly the kind of problem worth being the person who solves. 😏

Go grab the Character Board system...

And maybe be a little less grateful when someone halves your stuff. 😂
