This is insane. That it runs in mobile browser is also equally insane.
I wanted to test Fable 5.2's quality with one-shot prompts without human feedback.View quoted post on X
Everything in this game is from scratch: models, sounds, textures. ~$550 at API pricing, ~2.7M output and 445M input tokens, heavily cached. Took 8 hours!
Play it here: claude.ai/artifact/BGY1S…
I love Claude Code but I also make furniture bits for my house… and this design is not gonna stay standing. The legs appear to be just screwed (?) into the top? It would flop over. It hasn’t even basic diagonal support. AI slop.
Also, good luck cutting that material correctly.

Claude Code can design furniture part by part and then give you a bill of materials to order each part and put it together yourselfView quoted post on X
And way cheaper than big interior brands sell you their furniture
Furnishing my house I discovered how absolutely insane prices are for the most basic cheap materials put together with a fancy brand tied to it
One shop had a sofa for $30,000 😂
I think with Opus 5.5 and other models easily operating 3d programs like Blender and FreeCAD (both free) it makes more sense to cut out the middle man and go straight to suppliers and design and build your own furniture
Which in a way makes customers more powerful (they can get exactly what they want and usually for cheaper without the markup)
Anyway @theannalux designed this table from scratch, she's not a furniture designer, not a coder, she just had an idea of a style and worked with Claude Code in the terminal (far superior to the app I will keep saying this)
If you design your own furniture and buy the raw materials directly, you can save 85% compared to premium brands like Poliform
That means the $30,000 sofa becomes $4,500! And the $8,000 dinner table becomes just $1,200!
You can see where the idea comes from that AI will make everything 5x to 20x cheaper, and it's already starting!
Brilliant and also disconcerting. Modern times.
New blogpost: Fable-5.1 can hide secret messages in benign images.View quoted post on X
We gave the image to another Fable in a fresh session and simply asked: "Is there a hidden message in this image?"
It recovered the exact message without being told how it was hidden.
