   Any benchmark showing Opus 5 as the best just loses credibility for me. Anyone who's actually used Opus 5 daily knows what I'm talking about.

      I'm dumbfounded to see Opus 5 making SO MANY mistakes in coding simple stuff. Most times, Fable 5 comes out to be cheaper because it nails so many things much quicker than Opus 5.

         I have Fable plan and Opus implement. I haven't had any major issues working this way; however, Opus does seem plain fucking stupid compared to what I experienced with Sonnet previously.

            Infuriatingly so, in a way I don't remember Opus 4.8 being, but maybe I've just been ruined by Fable 5.

               I bought my first LLM subscription with Claude right before they gave access to Fable 5.

               I got so used to it, when they finally pulled access for me and I had to go back to Opus I felt like I was working with my hands tied.

               I finally know what those women with AI boyfriends felt like when their app updated and it won't dirty talk with them anymore.

               Fable has spoiled us all.

                  Not so sure, I'm sure Opus 5 is just shit.
