Story summary

Anthropic extended access to its Mythos model, Fable, for another week, delaying a charge plan to keep users from moving to OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 model.
The delay likely costs Anthropic money because Fable needs heavy computing power, illustrating AI firms’ cash burn to win market share before possible trillion-dollar IPOs.
Analysts say the AI rally may persist despite geopolitical tensions, inflation and growth risks, as stocks stay near highs.
