Which Claude 5? Opus 5 does seem to have diarrhea of the mouth. But Fable 5 hasn't been so bad for me. Or perhaps it is just better at adhering to my guidelines.

Opus 5 (author here). My toilet seat is plastic though, I only used Fable while it was available on the $20 plan! That's fair though, it was relatively fine when I did use it, perhaps I should specify.

Pre Trump-castration Fable was verbose, but had a point, and used that wordiness to say or show the indeed intelligent things it reasoned about. This, whatever this is, is something else.-

  • Is the nerfed Fable worse or better than Opus 5?

    • The problem here is that "better" is load-bearing, and I mean this half-seriously :)

      I would opine:

      - Nerfed Fable is worse than Fable

      - ... and I would argue Opus 5 is worse than nerfed Fable, to the point I've found it unusable.-
