OpenAI's GPT-5.6 Sol and xAI's Grok 4.6 tied for third at 61, while Google's Gemini 3.7 Flash scored 56. The result follows Anthropic's rollout of Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1, which included a 75% cut to cache read pricing and new safety features.", "body_md": "[Fable 5.1](https://officechai.com/ai/fable-5-1-benchmarks/) has made a big jump and grown Anthropic’s lead in the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index.\n\nAccording to the latest results published by Artificial Analysis, Claude Fable 5.1 (running at max effort, with fallback) has topped the benchmark’s Intelligence Index with a score of 66, putting it ahead of every other model currently tracked on the leaderboard. The next closest model is Anthropic’s own Claude [Opus 5](https://officechai.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/HOAffmCWsAA1D_X.png), which scored 63 — meaning Fable 5.1 beats Anthropic’s previous flagship by 3 points, and now holds a comfortable lead over the rest of the field.\n\n## Where It Stands Against The Competition\n\nThe gap to the rest of the industry is more pronounced. OpenAI’s [GPT-5.6 Sol](https://officechai.com/ai/openai-launches-gpt-5-6-sol-beats-mythos-on-terminalbench/) and[ xAI’s Grok 4.6](https://officechai.com/ai/grok-4-6-benchmarks/) (high) are tied for third place with a score of 61 apiece, five points behind Fable 5.1. Moonshot AI’s Kimi K3 (max) and Zhipu’s GLM-5.1 (max) follow closely with scores of 60 each, while MiniMax’s Spark 1.2 (high) trails slightly further behind at 57.\n\n[Google’s Gemini 3.7 Flash](https://officechai.com/ai/gemini-3-7-flash-is-at-pareto-frontier-of-intelligence-vs-speed-says-artificial-analysis/) (high) posted a score of 56, ahead of DeepSeek’s V4 Pro 0813 (max) at 53 and OpenAI’s GPT-5.6 Luna (max) at 52. NVIDIA’s Nemotron 3 Ultra rounds out the chart with a score of 38, well behind the rest of the pack.\n\nThe Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index aggregates performance across a range of reasoning, coding, and knowledge benchmarks to produce a single comparative score, and is widely used as a quick reference point for how frontier models stack up against each other.\n\n## Part Of A Broader Push\n\nThe result comes just after Anthropic’s official rollout of Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1, which the company positioned as its most advanced models yet for coding, knowledge work, and early-stage scientific research. Alongside capability gains, that release brought a 75% cut to cache read pricing (translating into roughly 25–45% lower overall costs depending on workload), a new enterprise data-retention framework called Enterprise Frontier Safeguards, and refined safety classifiers aimed at cutting down false positives in cybersecurity and biology-related queries.\n\nAnthropic had already published its own internal benchmark results showing Fable 5.1 ahead of Fable 5, Opus 5, and GPT-5.6 Sol across metrics like Terminal-Bench-Science 0.1, GDPval-AA v2, and Humanity’s Last Exam. The Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index score adds a third-party data point reinforcing that lead, with Fable 5.1 now holding the top spot on one of the industry’s most closely watched independent leaderboards.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-5", "canonical_source": "https://officechai.com/ai/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-of-66-beats-opus-5-by-3-points/", "published_at": "2026-09-01 19:15:34+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-09-01 19:22:36.460420+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "large-language-models", "ai-research"], "entities": ["Anthropic", "Claude Fable 5.1", "Claude Opus 5", "OpenAI", "GPT-5.6 Sol", "xAI", "Grok 4.6", "Google"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-5", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-5.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-5.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/claude-fable-5-1-scores-tops-artificial-analysis-intelligence-index-with-score-5.jsonld"}}
