Previously, access was set to expire today (July 7th)
It is theorized that OpenAI may time the release of GPT 5.6 in Codex to convert people who have lost access to Fable, so this is an interesting game theoric consequence.
Also consider that Fable launched on June 9. Many people including myself bought a 1-month Anthropic subscription just to use Fable.
By extending it to July 12, they're gonna get a second month out of a lot of such people. If it really expired today, I wasn't going to renew my month.
I was rushing to make the most of Fable today, and I'm at 67%, with limit reset on July 11th.
If would've used it more moderately if I had known in advance.
Same here. 20% usage already with just half a day usage. Wish they'd commit to keeping it on Max, even if severely limited.
