Because OpenAI says so, obviously!

No, not really. Yesterday I asked Opus if it can read the logs from the sessions I have on the local ChatGPT app. It looked around and said no, that’s not possible. I said “what about these jsonl files in this folder?” It read them and said

I’ve used Astra for the past day and a half. My layperson’s review is that it is impressive at computer use and 3D reasoning, and fails in similar ways to 5.6 Sol at similar rates when it comes to coding. I have no idea how it scored so hig

You are falling for selection bias. For every person using Astra to create a game from some random idea and sharing the impressive result, there are an unknown number who have tried the same thing and gave up in frustration.

There is something deeply wrong with Astra. I can’t quite put my finger on it. On the one hand it is a lot more knowledgeable, which makes sense since it’s a larger model. On the other hand that knowledge doesn’t reliably translate to intel

Yeah their support is non-existent. It's actually mind-blowing that so many people use it.

This whole thing is an absolute disaster honestly, and yes it is being downplayed and hand-waved away. Since March, so many people have mocked Anthropic for their approach to Mythos release, claimed it was all marketing, accused them of hol

>>> The demos of Fable/GPT-6 are impressive, but "real AGI" should act more like a collaborator than either a peon or overachiever. I don't really agree. The thing that makes Fable feel like an actual collaborat

>> I'm genuinely so confused when people say this with a straight face. Are you talking about coding? Desktop use? Prose? Or something else? Same. It makes me wonder what types of things the person must be working on.

I can't speak for others but I have a feeling you're in the very small minority with this take. You could say Sol is faster and cheaper and that's true. Outperforms Fable? Impossible to believe without hard evidence.

They are desperately, desperately trying to make a name for themselves as the lab that first created AGI, because Anthropic's IPO is just around the corner.

by enraged_camel 23d ago
They used a custom harness. It's not a one-to-one comparison.
45.
by enraged_camel 23d ago
Yep. Incredibly misleading. Although it is not surprising at this point. They are desperate and will do anything to undermine Anthropic's upcoming IPO.

by enraged_camel 23d ago
Exact same thing happed to me. I gave it a small/medium-sized ticket, walked away, came back to a 25,000 LoC monstrosity that both Fable and another 5.6 Sol agent said is 98% useless and should be thrown away.

There are so many deep flaws with this article that it is difficult to believe it was written by a seasoned economics professor. I can only conclude that he's pushing some sort of agenda or is otherwise politically motivated. 1. The co

I disagree. As the saying goes: never attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence. That goes for both OpenAI and HF (but mostly the former, as the latter was the victim).

by enraged_camel 24d ago
You are either seriously naive, or have never worked on any large and complex legacy codebase.
53.
by enraged_camel 24d ago
Yes they are. The OP doesn't appear to know what they are talking about. Fable can absolutely be used to develop applications. It's just that for security stuff I use Opus 5. Which is fine for most use cases.

The thing that blows my mind about it is that they straight up copied Claude Code and tried to frame it as some sort of incredible accomplishment. There are no new ideas, no insightful UI/UX paradigms, no killer features. They say mone

What predictions have Ed made that were correct? And how do they weigh against the incorrect ones, in terms of both quantity and quality? That's relevant because if you make a thousand predictions, a few of them might turn out to be tr

If you find derision and extreme cynicism "soothing", the problem may be with you, rather than those who are optimistic about AI.

>> I think it's fair to call his specific predictions "early." I'm saying his timelines are too short. That means his predictions were either wrong, or meaningless.

In this case, it is. Zitron does not possess even the most basic knowledge about the issues and practices he complains about. For example: https://www.crisesnotes.com/sigh-no-ed-zitron-ai-bond-issuan...
