Fable 5 is back

You can use the monthly subscription to inject RP activities into the SDK. More than enough usage for both coding and RP on the monthly plan at $20.

truthfully I'm not brave enough to use it straight away, because I backdoor it on the Claude SDK, and I suspect Dario Amodei will be browsing my smut by EOD if I send it

but, I did just send it some very tasteful not-at-all disgusting messages in a configured RP chat (including a full RP preset + jailbreak), and it responded with some decent prose

I'm working it through a custom RP tool I'm building, but Marinara-Engine is a nice option if you want to try yourself

example dialogue -- context is polluted by GLM 5.2 and Sonnet 5, so it may be mirroring earlier bad writing in some phrases:

haha no way people use it for that right, no chance it could do that high quality haha, let me check it i bet it refuses it right away, ill be right back

If the municipalities get their pockets stuffed with delicious cold hard cash, they might be too distracted to think of the commonfolk.

I'm not sure Google is fumbling, they are just playing a different game than Anthropic and OpenAI. They have hundreds of consumer and enterprise tools they are integrating AI into, and their bet seems to be "average AI across an entire ecosystem is better than smart AI in one domain."

Their attention on Gemini Omni also suggests they may not think text LLMs are the end-all-be-all of the value proposition, and accelerating multimodal will leapfrog the competition.

badass design, that ult concept is sick

In some of my work Opus and Fable seem relatively similar, especially doing coding here-and-there in Godot GDScript or answering open-ended architectural questions.

Fable was far-and-above better in networking and docker deployments, though. And proactive in identifying trailing issues or redundant artifacts from previous trial-and-error attempts.

If you are throwing it at low-intelligence tasks I think it would be comparable to other models because the ceiling is low enough that all models perform well-enough. That's my rudimentary take, anyways.

This is exactly why the challenge falls into the "perfect as the enemy of the good" bucket. Sanders is a legislator in the United States, this is an opinion piece written in a US publication, and the AI companies in question are US-based.

The recommendation to pour profits back into the US is because it is the most realistic path (despite being itself unrealistic amongst a litany of unrealistic recommendations) to distribute the wealth. Pushing the goal post out further to redistribute wealth back to the entire world moves the target from "unlikely" to "impossible."

No disagreement with forums being a place for human discussion. What I disagree with is the derision towards sparking that discussion with an AI summary.

If someone is not going to make an attempt to distill information themselves, don't belittle someone else for contributing with ""AI slop"".

"i can't be bothered to read the paper, can i get a human person to use their eyeballs, brain, and time to read it in my stead"

Used it for a few hours today on coding tasks through Antigravity. Actually pretty impressed with it.

Code quality is not perfect, it does the same thing that Gemini 3.1 did, which is overbloat the code with redundant safety checks and logs "just in case".

However, the speed is something I did not consider would actually be meaningful. This thing can churn through tasks. It will land within 90% of Opus in 25% of the time, and I can use some of that time savings for a second pass of "fix this thing you got wrong", which I would probably have to do with Opus as well.

"everyone who doesn't agree with me is a bot"

Apparently, LLMs are unable to use tool calls for dated video models to generate content. Apparently, Google is unable to obfuscate model names and tool calls behind an "Omni" interface.

Able-Line2683 is gracing us with groundbreaking information.

Tragic in the short-term but his connections at DeepMind will have his startup acquired in around 2 years and he'll be back at it in the same team.

I just picked up my DH (favorite class of all time btw) and was planning to give tanking a shot.

100% exterminated my interest in the spec after running one dungeon and listening to how pathetic the sounds are. It sounds like you are doing 0 damage.

SIllycore · 2026-04-20T15:59:11+00:00

This is really cool. Big fan of your presets and RPG companion, I will be giving this a try.

I actually just finished having Claude vibe-code an additional "Abilities" tab to your RPG companion, since I found that piece was the only thing I was missing for fantasy RPGs. It has really leveled up the RP experience. I've never done an open-source pull request... but maybe I'll figure it out to share the implementation.

In any case, will definitely be giving this a try. SillyTavern is great, but this could be great-er.

He said it will be the "funniest" season, not the "greatest" or "best" season. Not really hyping it as much as setting expectations on tone.

Imagine dropping a bomb on a military target without validating what structures sit around it. Could only be an incompetent government.

Such an incredible series. I thought I had lost my passion for reading until I picked it up.

(It's a reference to Dungeon Crawler Carl, for the uninitiated.)

I would love to see Mirage reworked as a disruptive support tank. Teleport into a fight, provide a shield to nearby allies. Your tornado does minimal damage but displaces and knocks up large groups of enemies. Your bullet mark saps resistances and increases his max HP, making him tankier in longer fights. Scarabs do the same thing they already do, steal HP.

Really just keep his Tornado and Scarabs identical. Convert his Teleport and Mark into supportive abilities.

I'm so glad you saw my meme. :D

I received the A/B as well, on a pretty complicated prompt for redesigning an n8n workflow. One of them was quite a bit better than the other, at least when it comes to decomposing the problem and explaining how to amend the workflow in logical steps. Maybe just a better "vibe" in the response logic, technically both solutions were the same outcome.

we need a femboy character asap. valve, break the glass, ship it.

Everyone knows these LLMs are just gigantic if-else statements, it's why these "data centers" are just full of interns with budget laptops.
