Ask HN: Fable Thread (July 12th Edition)

2•andai•1h ago
So, we just got an extra week of Fable.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48821102

Thought this would be a good chance to ask everyone how it's going, what the experience has been like so far. Tips and tricks, etc.

I've been using it for some major refactoring, but I'm running out of Fable usage so I've been using Opus for most of the work. I'm not noticing much difference there, so I'm probably not working at a scale where there is much difference.

Some people have mentioned that going back to Opus felt painful so I'm wondering what that's all about.

Anyway, yeah. Discuss :)

Very expensive, not sure how it fits in with many companies seemingly trying to get employees using models at about Sonnet tier pricing. I certainly would never pay API rates for it, using ccusage I am seeing myself "use" $150-$400 worth of fable per day. (https://www.theinformation.com/articles/tesla-caps-employee-...)

That's funny. Sonnet is not great in my opinion. I mean, it often amazes me with its creativity, and I do prefer its style over most bigger models from other providers.

But it also constantly just does dumb things that make me slap my forehead. Opus is a lot better but the slap ratio has not reached 0 yet. Fable seems a bit better there, more testing needed.

But yeah, VC money ran out, now we wait for Moore's Law... :)

Re: Sonnet-ish-pricing. GLM-5.2 is cheaper than that, and appears to be "Opus-ish" in quality. I've been having a reasonably fine time with it. My experience is that it's "very solid for small and medium tasks", haven't tested it for anything bigger though.
