In the Same Morning, OpenAI and Anthropic Both Loosened Usage Limits

On the morning of July 12, 2026, within less than one hour, two leading AI companies loosened the “usage leash.” Anthropic’s official Claude account announced at 10:02 that Claude Fable 5 availability would be extended and Claude Code’s weekly usage limit would remain 50% higher. Then OpenAI’s Tibo announced at 10:59 that the 5-hour usage window for Plus, Business, and Pro would be temporarily removed, GPT-5.6 Sol efficiency would be improved, and a usage reset was coming. Same morning, same theme: usage. This feels less like coincidence and more like an arms race heating up.

Update

Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 redeployed

July 1, 2026

Access to Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 is now restored.

On Friday, June 12, the US government applied export controls to our newest models, Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5. This required us to restrict access to foreign nationals, whether inside or outside the United States. Because the order took effect immediately and we had no reliable way to verify nationality in real-time, we suspended access to both models for all users.

Below is Anthropic’s official statement on the matter. This site republishes it as news without modification.

The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Anthropic models will not be affected.
