Deprecated on Google Cloud on February 23, 2026 and switched off on August 23 — the last Claude 3-generation model on the platform. Anthropic itself had retired claude-3-haiku on April 20, so Google kept serving a model its maker had already buried for 125 extra days. Amazon Bedrock, not to be outdone, keeps it on life support until September 10: one model, three funerals.
