How can this be "objective"? Surely its subjective. I've tried a fuck load of harnesses but keep coming back to Codex as my harness.

The SWEBench benchmarks are really gamed at this point and should not be trusted period. The solutions are effectively in the training sets and have been for a while.

They are both excellent but excel in different areas. Fable is super super proactive and great for doing a LOT of work with a single prompt, also for creative work. Codex is more details focused, often catches wonky bugs and correctness iss

"On Agents’ Last Exam (opens in a new window), an evaluation of long-running professional workflows across 55 fields, GPT‑5.6 Sol sets a new high of 53.6, eclipsing Claude Fable 5 (adaptive reasoning) by 13.1 points. Even at medium rea

I mean, I literally asked about the effects of nicotine withdrawal on the body after quitting smoking and the model got downgraded to Opus... So yeah, if I can't ask about nicotine withdrawal, then I think almost anything biology relat

Dude it’s not trivial to switch because the behaviors are different! You’re clearly not building a product based on an LLM. I’m still using various old Anthropic and OpenAI models for products I’ve built and released because I can’t risk th

For me it's the exact opposite, Anthropics models seem great for "vibe coding" by non engineers. My girlfriend uses Claude and loves it because she doesn't know any of the terminology and Claude happily fills in the gaps

MCP is a protocol, that's all. Saying MCPs are the new websites is like saying "SOAP" is the new websites, or "REST" is the new websites. MCP is basically the AI equivalent of a REST API, it's not a product any

It's interesting how you would say this about China but not about the US, especially given what's happened recently with Anthropic and the US govt. Do you really think the US government doesn't get access or couldn't get

Well, all the "trivial" and obvious jailbreaks haven't worked for years on the frontier models. Also, the average person has no idea about the field of jailbreaking. It's like asking the average person to hack a random I

Right, all the people who had actual jailbreaks to Opus 4.8 decided to use them on your experiment. Think about it man, your test proved nothing. All it showed is that people who know nothing about jailbreaking, and tried casually, couldn&#

This whole experiment would be like someone putting their IPhone or Mac on the public internet, publishing the IP, and asking regular people to hack it. Why would any actually "serious" hacker use a vulnerability to hack a no-name

Basically no one really tried so there is no learning here, which is what I originally predicted. That is, there was no value to any serious attempt here, just a handful of folks casually sending an email. Other companies (actual targets) h

I can buy the crazy solutions part. Codex is highly steerable I find whereas Opus (and Fable in a different way) worked for longer and often did MORE than I wanted it to do. Fable was absolutely maximalist. We tested it on a fairly innocuou

Funny, I find Codex to still be better at Coding than Opus or Fable. I A/B tested on a whole array of prompts between Codex and Fable, and Fable almost always found that Codex had produced a better plan and covered more edge cases than

If you think this about Codex, I'd be curious to hear your opinion on Claude Code. Claude Code eats RAM on my Macbook Pro like no other app I've experienced, Codex on the other hand seems way more performant, more consistent, less

Yeah he has zero credentials and authority and an agenda to push. Not to mention most of his articles are financially and technically illiterate and full of mistakes and inaccuracies. No idea why his shit keeps getting submitted.

This is totally inaccurate, the APIs provide the reasoning logs. You ABSOLUTELY can distill from APIs, in fact, that's the primary way distillation is done currently.

I never use Opus etc after 50% token usage (and from reading other devs blogs and on Twitter it seems this is a comment sentiment) because it falls off an intelligence cliff at that point. I mean, I really, really see intelligence tank at a

No it wasn't, Fable is a general purpose model for use in regular chat, analysis, as well as coding. And yes, the parent poster is accurate, Fable is just as prone to moronic mistakes as Opus was. Stop being so AI-pilled. Codex is stil
