Real Thing is going to come from a major breakthrough. I’m talking about competition amongst models. Difference between Fable and GPT Sol Ultra is so minor the only thing that really matters is that GPT is cheaper.

Hell, difference between Opus and Fable isn’t that big. I would still prefer Opus for most task because it’s cheaper. Break things down into smaller tasks and create deterministic parts of the process and you need the more expensive models less and less.

Anthropic needs to get their token efficiency under control or they will lose long term.
