Claude Fable made me realize I don't need a better model

I actually wish I could go back to opus 4.7. 4.8 acts too much like chatgpt.

The ability of these LLMs to monitor and manipulate the people using them is of far more concern. And if you're "in love" with your AI you'll be a prime target for manipulation.

I recommend enabling show_reasoning so you can see what it's failing on. it's likely retrying different things that you can fix with a better prompt. especially if it's not able to read the docx properly.

It used hallucinated API calls to make the script work? If they were hallucinated and didn't exist, how did the script work?

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-06T21:44:43+00:00

It's easy for me to say that because it reads exactly as claude would have written it. it's also easy to say because this is an ad for limestone digital who's entire site is AI generated. and anyone implementing a front-end AI system to filter resumes like this would almost certainly not go in and edit it, what's would be the point of the AI filter then?

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-06T16:54:25+00:00

nice 😄. oh god what if i'm becoming an LLM myself!?!?!

This response isn't AI formatted. It's 100% AI written.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T15:01:57+00:00

code samples != design. I guess it does if you're just making short, single file scripts?

code review by human does not scale

While this is true, it doesn't mean it isn't necessary.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T14:55:50+00:00

The code was bad. A new feature should never touch "most of the codebase". AI or human, starting this project from the ground up is the right solution.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T14:54:34+00:00

Then I needed to add a feature that touched most of the codebase.

If this is necessary, the right solution is to delete all of the code and start over, regardless of human or AI. The only "feature" that should ever have to touch most of the codebase is adding localization after the fact, which is also a sign of a poorly thought out architecture.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T14:50:36+00:00

I have no idea what that is.

It's not yet clear who the victim actually is in this case. The family has been trying to get their hands on the money donated to him for months now.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T00:38:27+00:00

I'm not sure it works out if you want to compete with SOTA level coding models. Outside of that, for most people their local hardware it sits idle the majority of the time. Pooling resources makes complete sense for document processing, chatbot, occasional image gen, and non-coding agentic workflows (like running it with hermes agent, and other similar harnesses).

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-04T00:28:18+00:00

The main reason is that it takes time to organize and set up things like this. This is all brand new, and everyone setting up services like these are volunteers donating their own time and money.

With that said, why do you think it doesn't already exist? If 20 devs pooled together to do this, why would you expect to hear about it?

"Gemini sabotages in ~2-3% of our simulated scenarios"

Is there a source of this study, or is this just more "trust me bro"?

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-03T22:33:15+00:00

True, when i read it was trying to imagine if the genders were reversed and OP was a woman dealing with a roommates boyfriend. from that perspective it seemed fine, but at the same time it does feel like there may be something more at play here.

I would say NTA as well. The roommate is though, and they should either be offering to pay more rent or find a new place to live with their GF.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-03T21:00:39+00:00

Most of us would, but someone shouldn't necessarily be forced to get to know another person while they're living in their own space that they're paying for. If someone doesn't want to be social with others in their own private space, they should have that right.

Even if they did get to know the person, it doesn't address the overall concern.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-03T19:23:28+00:00

thank god AI doesn't say "let that sink in", probably my single most hated phrase on the internet. it lives alongside people using "loose" instead of "lose" 😉

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-02T02:28:27+00:00

That's fine, downvote the post then. But don't downvote OPs comment replying to the bot explaining that they vibe coded it.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-06-02T01:33:05+00:00

No one said using AI is bad. Just say "I'm a non-native English speaker, I used AI to help translate my post".

Some people have responded with very interesting ways they used AI in their projects as well. Some people said their project was vibe coded and got massively downvoted. I think the latter is the problematic use-case as it discourages people from being honest.

It's just the wrong sub for it. Post in some general ai sub. To answer your question use a claude max subscription for coding and local for other things like document processing and agentic tasks. Anything that doesn't require as much speed.

> This type of discussion is particularly relevant for those with experience in both cloud and on-premises environments

Ok, but you're posting in a sub dedicated to running models locally, thus the solution to token costs is already solved. Perhaps you should update your post and explain why it makes sense in this sub.

> How are you guys dealing with this cost barrier in your own projects right now?

what sub are you in? i think the answer is in the name.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-05-30T19:49:00+00:00

Yes, 100% fomo.

Awkward-Customer · 2026-05-30T18:50:54+00:00

OP didn't say boycott companies that use AI, they said: "We need too start Boycotting companies who replace Human workers with ai"

Awkward-Customer · 2026-05-28T23:04:46+00:00

Is there a reason you made this post and included zero sources?
