IT’S COMING! Fable 5.5 & GPT-6.2 Leaks, Gemini 4 Carbon & Google’s $500B Crash
Fable 5.5 might drop this week: Anthropic's own Mythos page briefly showed "Claude Mythos 5.5", and GPT-6.2 Astra is showing up in Codex usage stats. Plus the best Gemini 4 Carbon demos, and the AI money crash: Google's worst day since 2004, Apple passing Nvidia, OpenAI cutting its raise, and what it means for the AI plans you pay for. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE TO BYTEFORWARD AI news, coding agents, model comparisons, benchmarks, and the things people are actually building: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGGHPOAzUaKsSc2yjsOeAFQ?sub_confirmation=1 CHAPTERS 0:00 Fable 5.5 and GPT-6.2 Astra next week? 0:40 Anthropic's hidden "Mythos 5.5" 1:38 The Fable 5.5 leaks 2:18 The catch in the proof screenshot 2:40 GPT-6.2 Astra in Codex usage stats 3:05 Why model-name screenshots prove nothing 3:54 Gemini 4 Carbon demos 5:08 Carbon vs Opus 5.5 vs GPT on price 5:54 The AI money crash 6:44 Google's numbers and the row that matters 7:48 Why Search is the real problem 8:39 $500 billion gone in one day 8:55 Intel crashes, Apple passes Nvidia 9:27 The $740 billion spending wall 10:51 OpenAI cuts its raise 11:13 Anthropic's IPO bet 12:26 Who builds it, and who pays 13:14 What this means for ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini users 14:27 Sam Altman wants your RAM 15:00 Is the AI bubble popping? Confirmed vs reported: Fable 5.5 and GPT-6.2 Astra are leaks and user claims (neither is announced). Carbon demos are testers' own posts and numbers. Alphabet's numbers are from its Q3 release and call; Anthropic's deal and risk language from its S-1. OpenAI's smaller raise (FT, WSJ), Anthropic's IPO size and date, and Nvidia's Nscale talks are reports. News commentary, not financial advice.
