I am a pro-OpenAI guy in general, so, don't take the following litely: I have been testing Fable 5 for the last few days and literally couldn't sleep. This is an unbelievably good model. Last time I felt this amount of progress was GPT 3.5->4. A step-function change in coding.
Negative users mocked a post about Anthropic's Fable 5 launch by highlighting a misspelling and using insulting slang to question the author's credibility as a developer.
proliferating the lightcone with big model smell congrats on the launch, anthropic!!
Fable 5 is the biggest step up I’ve felt in our models since Opus 4.5 back in November. After 4.5 came out I uninstalled my IDE when I realized that I’d been doing 100% of my coding in a terminal for a few weeks. With Fable, it’s felt like Claude has stepped up from being a coding agent to a thought and design partner in building the product. Fable has judgement, taste, and dimensionality in a way that previous models didn’t, leading me to trust it more with the most complex work.
I think the first time I had this realization was when I asked Fable to debug something. It is the first model I have used that was so methodical and precise, taking measurements and adding logs then verifying that it truly fixed the issue before declaring victory.
There’s nothing in claude code’s prompting telling the model to do that, it’s just part of its personality. It really has this “big model smell” that I haven’t felt before.
boris, were you really using fable? honestly

@aidan_mclau 5.6 wen
@aidan_mclau already misspelled "uninstalled" in the middle of a breakthrough take
real devs know the terminal is where the magic happens anyway
@aidan_mclau According to a search, it was over a year since you used that term here, and then it was for your bf.
You have convinced me to try it, and I hope things are going well for the two of you.
@aidan_mclau Merge and assist
@aidan_mclau omg what a size queen
@DanielleFong Narrator:
He wasn’t. It was a fable.
@aidan_mclau big model smell is crazy terminology but i get the energy exactly
now im wondering what fable smells like
@aidan_mclau the lightcone arc is real lol
smell from competition gonna spread fast
