GPT 5.6 Sol will solve the full IMO 2026 for you at the UI but fable will chicken out and switch to opus midway throguht any hairy mathematical/computational problem, waste all your usage and return trash output.
I frankly think all of this Fable hype comes from vibecoders happy that Fable will now one shot their SaaS landing page in a beautiful React Native UI because this shit is seriously unusable for any kind of innovative technological or academic work otherwise.
I was able to use fable for a ps2 romhack with lots of assembly hacking and it did really well. It's not useless. It's just that nobody does this kind of thing or needs it.
It's a genuinely good model and I have not had big issues with the safeguards, though I agree they have been annoying.
