    lol this is getting so ridiculous... every single model is TOO DANGEROUS... do they think we're stupid? it's obviously a marketing stunt.

    I'm right there with you. Been in tech for close to 20 years, mostly in SWE roles but last few years of been hybrid SWE/Management. Check my bookcase and you'll find ~60 thick book…

    I think they neutered Fable. When it first came out it was indeed revolutionary. But what we have today, is not what we had before the ban.

    Interesting point… and I suppose for the most part, I agree. A rare case of a mostly free lunch.

    Do you honestly believe in the so called “free lunch”? I mean there are MANY substances you can presently take that make you feel way better, but always come with a cost or a downs…

    And you’ve opened wireshark and verified the model is sending absolutely nothing? Not caching and sending later, etc?

    Thanks. I went looking for how to actually verify myself as I would love to get access to Fable again. This post confirmed it, it's not relate to Fable at all and has been around. …

    Interesting perspective but don't you think it's too late? Opus 4.8 can already replace most developers. Companies are already cutting the bottom half of the work force, since Opus…

    I doubt it. There’s a very hungry work force ready to take any job available.

    You will literally build nothing but the most primitive of devices unless you accept black boxes. In fact I'd argue its one of humanities great strengths that we can build on top o…

    There is a huge difference between greenfield development and working with an existing codebase. I'm not trying to discredit your experience and maybe it really is something wrong …

    Is there anything unique here happening for the video aspect or is it just taking snapshots over and over? I’ve been looking for a good video summarizing / understanding model!

    Can someone explain what one might use this model for? As a developer with a casual interest in biology it would be fun to play with but honestly not sure what I would do

    What? Where do you live? I often ask people when I first see them, “ hey how’s it goin’? “ And 99.9% of the time it’s a short “good, u?” Very much just a hi/hi type oft thing.

    Fascinating post for THIS forum. I don’t know about others but a big reason I went into software development (whether I want to admit it or not) is because I am “naturally” not ver…

    It all depends on how deep you want to go. Building wrapper apps on top of LLM APIs takes barely more knowledge and training than normal frontend and backend dev works. If you want…

    Eh, sure, but marginally better if not the same as Claude 4.6, which itself was a small bump over Claud 4.5

    But actual progress seems to be slower. These modes are releasing more often but aren’t big leaps.
