Quoting Drew Breunig

Read Original

This article discusses the impact of Fable, a powerful AI model, on coding practices. The author notes that before Fable, improving coding harnesses or context strategies seemed unnecessary as new models would arrive at similar prices and solve most problems. However, Fable's high cost and the adequacy of alternatives like Opus, 5.6, K3, and GLM for most coding needs led to a strategic shift in deciding which tasks warrant Fable's use. The piece quotes Drew Breunig on this 'end of the free lunch' in AI-assisted development.
