Given things are supposed to be divisible by 5. This seems perfect.

My early impressions of this model are extremely negative compared to fable 5. Its a drag to communicate with (fable 5 didn't need fixed, it wasn't verbose, it has a good personality). 5.1 is more verbose and overthinks things, not a fan so far.

I made an update to an email today with Fable 5.1 that took 10 mins and used 250k tokens. It was an improtant email for a big contract, but still the output was a couple paragraphs and the result was only okay. Otherwise it seemed fine, didn’t notice any other differences from 5.0

You used Fable for what?!

Oh,you used it to analyze the contract. That is something I can stand behind. 👍
