Given the same task to 4 models, Fable 5 wins all, but costs 6 times more than Opus 4.8
Task: 3 HTML5 physics scenes: broken bridge derailment, canyon collision, monster truck
Fable 5: $3.12, A+, no clipping GPT 5.5: $1.14, closest to Fable Opus 4.8: $0.56, average results GLM 5.2: $0.08, cheapest, didn’t win a single round
Quality and price still can’t have both. Which would you choose? https://t.co/kljY7cgDB7
