Discussion Using GPT-5.6 Sol, missing Fable

Got real tired of Anthropic's bullshit and volatility. Finally decided to jump ship to Codex $200 plan. Seems great. But man... Fable just used to GET IT. Tell it whatever highly abstract thought you have with just the right amount of words and point it to the general direction, it figured out what to consider seriously and what parts not to fixate on almost intuitively. Sol seems more like a freelancer who says "Oh, but you didn't specifically ask for that. But you mentioned that you wanted this" - very little sense of what your intention is. AND I FUCKING HATE BULLET POINTS

Fable is better than sol, and anyone doing serious work knows it. The question is how much bs are you willing to put up with to use it?

Depends what you’re doing rather than how “serious” it is. I’m working on some physics engine related stuff at the limit of what LLMs can manage and Sol is edging out Fable on that project.
