Anthropic has unveiled Claude Fable 5.2, which achieved a score of 64.9% on the RoboDojo benchmark, significantly surpassing OpenAI's GPT-6 Astra, which scored 29.8%. This benchmark evaluates models controlling a simulated two-arm robot using camera images, highlighting Fable 5.2's enhanced capabilities in robotics tasks, including those it was not explicitly trained for.
The significance of this development lies in Fable 5.2's reported performance, which Anthropic claims outperforms most AI systems specifically designed for robot control. The results were obtained through internal testing on a consistent harness, indicating a competitive edge in the evolving landscape of robotics and AI integration.
Anthropic's Fable 5.2 is positioned second on the RoboDojo leaderboard, trailing only behind Qoo Tech's Q0-Preview. The company has not disclosed whether its score of 64.9% represents a success rate or a score, leaving some ambiguity regarding its exact standing among other models. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
