ClaudeAI users report significant slowness post-Fable release

A long-time subscriber to Anthropic's $200/month Claude plan has reported a significant decrease in the model's speed over the past month, coinciding with the release of the Fable model. The user, who previously found Claude to be efficient for their consulting business, now experiences extreme slowness, taking hours for tasks that other models like Sol 5.6 can complete much faster. Despite implementing Anthropic's recommended optimizations for speed, the issue persists, leading the user to consider switching to alternative models. AI

IMPACT Potential user frustration and churn due to performance issues could impact adoption rates for Anthropic's models.
