No Claude Fable 5? No problem: Sakana achieves frontier performance with new Fugu multi-model, auto synthesis system

Designed for developers, enterprises, and nations seeking resilience against vendor lock-in and geopolitical export controls, Fugu (Japanese for "pufferfish"), bypasses the traditional monolithic model structure by dynamically routing queries to a swappable pool of specialized AI agents. Sakana CEO and co-founder David Ha, formerly of Google Brain, positioned Fugu as a more reliable option for enterprise workflows than any single AI model provider in the wake of Anthropic's move on June 12 to revoke public access to its most powerful models, Claude Mythos 5 and Claude Fable 5, in the wake of a U.S. government export control order. As Ha wrote in a post today on X:"Fugu dynamically orchestrates the world’s best models to tackle complex tasks. We are proving that a well-orchestrated pool of swappable agents can match restricted frontier models like Fable and Mythos.…
