Artificial Analysis: Claude Fable 5.2 Takes #1 on the AA-3D Interactive 3D Benchmark at 1271 Elo, 67 Points Clear, and Leads the VIALS-AA Scientific Image Reasoning Benchmark at 67%
Independent evaluator Artificial Analysis published two new results on November 10. On AA-3D, which tests how well a model acting as an agent builds interactive three.js web scenes, Claude Fable 5.2 (Max) scores 1271 Elo, 67 points ahead of second-place Claude Sonnet 5.5 (1204); its 95% confidence interval of 1246 to 1297 does not overlap any other model, so the lead is outside the margin of error. It is 132 points above Fable 5.1 (1139) and ahead of the top OpenAI and Google entries, GPT-6 Astra (1168) and Gemini 4 Argon (1147). On VIALS-AA, a life-science image reasoning benchmark, Fable 5.2 scores 67%, ahead of previous leader Gemini 4 Carbon (64%) and GPT-6 Astra (63%). AA also found opposite strategies: Fable averages about 37 tool calls per task, Astra about 8.

Within an hour of Anthropic releasing Claude Fable 5.2, Cursor and Perplexity both shipped the model and posted results from their in-house evals. Cursor's official account says Fable 5.2 scores 56.9% on CursorBench at default (High) effort, up from 49.2% for Fable 5.1, and 60% at max effort, the top score on the board. Cursor's chart puts the default setting at about $9.70 average cost per task. Perplexity's official account says Fable 5.2 set a record 0.851 on its WANDR benchmark at $14.51 per task, on the performance-cost Pareto frontier; Gemini 4 Argon scores 0.802 ($7.88), GPT-6 Astra 0.735 and Fable 5.1 0.684. Both are vendor-run evals, not independent public benchmarks.

Anthropic Gives Claude Pro, Max, Ultra, and Team Users One Free Full Reset Across All Models and Limits, Usable Before December 10 at 2:00 p.m. PT
On November 10, Anthropic's official developer account ClaudeDevs said all Pro, Max, Ultra, and Team users are getting one free full reset, across all models and limits, usable anytime before December 10 at 2:00 p.m. PT (6:00 a.m. Singapore time on December 11). The company said it recently fixed a few small issues that used more limits than intended, and that the earlier Fable resets for the Fable 5.2 launch did not do much for people who had already hit their weekly limits for all models. The issues did not affect everyone, but Anthropic said it wanted to make up for the trouble. The reset is in Settings > Usage, or at clau.de/reset.
