Fable 5 just got pulled. And it reminded me of something.

Every powerful tool we've ever had has been a double-edged sword.

> Fire. Dangerous. We learned to use it carefully.

> Encryption. Dangerous. We learned to use it carefully.

> The internet. Dangerous. We learned to use it carefully.

The pattern is always the same.

Something new arrives that can do real damage in the wrong hands.

We panic. We debate. Some people want to ban it outright.

Then we figure out that the capability itself isn't the problem.

Misuse is the problem. And misuse gets solved through guardrails, not removal.

But with AI we keep reaching for the plug.

Not because the evidence demands it.

Because the capability makes us uncomfortable.

Fable 5 wasn't pulled because it was broken.

It was pulled because it worked too well.

And that's a pattern worth paying attention to.

Because every time we unplug something that works, we don't make the risk go away.

We just stop being the ones who know how to use it.
