They'e already solved black hole physics problems.\n\n[Matt Binder](https://mashable.com/author/matt-binder)\n\n[Read Full Bio](https://mashable.com/author/matt-binder)\n\n[Anthropic](https://mashable.com/category/anthropic) dropped two new frontier AI models on Monday, [Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2](https://www.anthropic.com/claude-fable-and-mythos-5-2). \n\nAccording to the AI company, Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2 were designed to \"tackle the most daunting technical challenges\" and present \"improvements in areas like coding, reasoning, and vision.\"\n\nNew frontier models from OpenAI, Google, Anthropic, and Meta have been released at a rapid clip in recent months, and the two new Anthropic models closely follow the release of [Google Gemini 4 Carbon](https://mashable.com/tech/google-launches-gemini-4-argon), [Meta Muse Wonder](https://mashable.com/tech/meta-launches-muse-wonder-ai-model-family), and [OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra](https://mashable.com/tech/openai-gpt-6-astra-launch-pricing-safety-benchmarks). On launch day, Claude Fable 5.2 claimed the top spot on the [Artificial Analysis Intelligence leaderboard](https://x.com/ArtificialAnlys), previously held by Gemini 4 Carbon. \n\n**You May Also Like**\n\n        [This Tweet is currently unavailable.

The company said that Fable 5.2 has \"strong cybersecurity and biology safeguards to guard against misuse,\" which is why it's available to all users. Mythos 5.2, however, is only available for verified organizations working on [cybersecurity](https://mashable.com/category/cybersecurity) or biomedical research.\n\n*Want to learn more about getting the best out of your tech?
