Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella told employees that Anthropic's limits on requests that users submit to the startup's high-end Fable artificial intelligence model don't make sense. "If you use Fable, when it refuses for any random thing, it just is like, when was the last time you had a creation tool that was so editorially controlled?" Nadella told engineers working on Microsoft's Copilot AI software, according to a copy of his remarks that was provided to CNBC. "It doesn't make sense." Microsoft declined to comment. An Anthropic spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for comment. When end users ask Fable about some aspects of creating large-scale models, among other topics, Anthropic might send responses from an older version, according to a support page. Some people have called out the rejections on social media.
