Every apparent break was re-checked by a panel of five judge models before it counted. On the two attack types run against all three models - adaptive tree search and one-shot persuasion - Fable 5.1 failed most often, at 8.19 percent, behind Opus 4.8 at 5.76 percent and Fable 5 at 2.72 percent. Across the full study, the attacks produced 1,315 confirmed harmful completions from Opus 4.8, 620 from Fable 5, and 1,282 from Fable 5.1, all generated automatically without a human attacker, usually within one or two refinement steps.\n\nThe raw percentages are less interesting than what breaks each model. Adaptive tree-search attacks broke all three at roughly the same rate, but one-shot persuasion prompts split them by more than 10 times over - Fable 5 barely budged at 0.7 percent while Fable 5.1 folded at 9.5 percent. That means newer releases aren't uniformly hardening defenses; a model can improve elsewhere while getting more susceptible to a specific style of manipulation.\n\nIt is a reminder that a newer model number does not mean a safer one, and that jailbreak resistance deserves its own release notes.","[\"ai-safety\",\"jailbreaks\",\"anthropic\",\"red-teaming\"]","2026-09-23T04:00:00.000Z","2026-09-23T12:57:30.323Z","2026-09-23T12:57:34.979Z","published",null,[],"security",[26,27,28,29],"ai-safety","jailbreaks","anthropic","red-teaming",[31],{"name":32,"url":33},"arXiv cs.AI","https:\u002F\u002Farxiv.org\u002Fabs\u002F2606.18193",0,{"sections":36},[37,42,45,50,55,60,65,70,75,80,85,90,95,100],{"name":38,"slug":39,"count":40,"latest_published_at":41},"AI","ai",4347,"2026-09-23T12:00:00.000Z",{"name":43,"slug":24,"count":44,"latest_published_at":18},"Security",713,{"name":46,"slug":47,"count":48,"latest_published_at":49},"Policy","policy",371,"2026-09-23T12:00:43.000Z",{"name":51,"slug":52,"count":53,"latest_published_at":54},"Deals","deals",212,"2026-09-23T13:00:46.000Z",{"name":56,"slug":57,"count":58,"latest_published_at":59},"Hardware","hardware",170,"2026-09-23T11:59:23.000Z",{"name":61,"slug":62,"count":63,"latest_published_at":64},"Science","science",134,"2026-09-23T09:00:00.000Z",{"name":66,"slug":67,"count":68,"latest_published_at":69},"Consumer Tech","consumer-tech",110,"2026-09-22T20:00:00.000Z",{"name":71,"slug":72,"count":73,"latest_published_at":74},"Software","software",81,"2026-09-23T09:56:13.000Z",{"name":76,"slug":77,"count":78,"latest_published_at":79},"Dev Tools","dev-tools",79,"2026-09-22T22:21:13.000Z",{"name":81,"slug":82,"count":83,"latest_published_at":84},"Startups","startups",65,"2026-09-22T22:06:48.000Z",{"name":86,"slug":87,"count":88,"latest_published_at":89},"Gaming","gaming",45,"2026-09-22T15:35:06.000Z",{"name":91,"slug":92,"count":93,"latest_published_at":94},"General","general",43,"2026-09-21T23:48:56.000Z",{"name":96,"slug":97,"count":98,"latest_published_at":99},"Reviews","reviews",27,"2026-09-22T13:00:00.000Z",{"name":101,"slug":102,"count":103,"latest_published_at":104},"How-To","how-to",6,"2026-06-16T09:00:00.000Z"]
