Claude Fable 5 beats Pokémon FireRed using only vision: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIQBP1w4B1M
Bold move putting in the lvl 3 Pidgey against Gary's Blastoise at the end there (~14sec in... integer timestamps insufficient here).

#132Uploaded my code base and it forced switched to Opus 4.8 after thinking for 5 minutes even though I prompted it to not work on cybersecurity related things. Amazing.

#133> On June 23, we’ll remove Fable 5 from those plans. Using it after that will require usage credits. We've entered the phase where only companies will be able to afford state-of-the-art models.
Established companies welcome pricing that reduces the potential for competition, if coding is a primary barrier.
Re: Claude Fable 5
#134Looks like a good model (sir). Costs are getting out of control though. 2x Opus and non-metered usage going away. We're quickly approaching the cost of a human salary for normal usage.

I mean, if by right you mean "insiders leaked to make a few bucks..." sure?

#137In the automotive world we have benchmarks in HP/torque with the dyno. That’s expensive though, so many depend on their “butt dyno” to judge if their fresh new parts and tune made a difference.
I’m curious how this will feel to my code “butt dyno”. I haven’t noticed much between Opus and Sonnet. I’m comparing this difference to the early days of Claude in 2025. It does what I need and both need a little bit of correction and whatnot. Benchmarks are nice, but I want to see how this feels. Looking forward to trying it later tonight.

#139At this point Anthropic is a pure marketing and PR company. Super catchy names like Opus, Mythos and Fable trying to get you to think that these software products are actually super-human life changing experiences. Boris Cherny coming to HN “Hi! it’s Boris from the Claude Code team” to get real tech people’s goodwill. From Opus 4.6 there are no noticeable improvements for me in code generation. It works very well, ti…
Your observations are right but pretty insane to consider them a pure PR company lol. They are making more frequent releases so yes the release-to-release quality is smaller but we’re still ascending quality and reliability curves the same way we have since GPT-3. You get a GPT4->5 leap every like 17 or 18 months I think it is
Re: Claude Fable 5
#140In other words, Fable is Mythos with less compute and with some feel good "safeguards".
At least they name their models honestly now to indicate that the religion has nothing to do with reality. Soon the disciples will pay the full token price to fatten their church leaders.
