Ran one query on fable 5 and got back and it used all my usage. One query...

Users complained that Fable 5 exhausts full usage quotas on single queries because of long unresponsive chains of thought that produce no answers before hitting limits.

Tried now on fable 5 extra, lower setting. Now I am out of usage for whole month!

Such a fraud, fable 5 just burns usage without ever giving back an answer. At least give back the quick answer when the usage is almost out.

@jasondeanlee @tourzhao I agree with you it sucks. Has a long CoT, no response, then when you press “Continue” no response and then limit reached.

And the math is often wrong.
