Fable's Subscription Limbo — and Why It Matters
@trq212 Confirmed Fable leaves subscriptions after July 7th but pledged to restore it as capacity allows.
@theo Reported completing a full backlog of Fable work in one day, highlighting intense demand.
@GergelyOrosz Tested Fable on quarterly accounting and found it promising but too slow and incomplete for real use.- @emollick Demonstrated Fable autonomously producing a short film by orchestrating ElevenLabs and Hugging Face APIs.
Anthropic's Fable agent is dominating the conversation. Fable will leave subscription plans after July 7th, but Anthropic's Thariq confirmed they aim to restore it to standard subscriptions "as soon as capacity allows." The caveat did little to calm demand — Theo (t3.gg) said he burned through a backlog of work he'd saved for Fable in a single day and didn't know what to do next. Real-world tests are mixed. Gergely Orosz tried using Fable for quarterly accounting — it showed promise on autonomous task-chaining but was too slow and clunky for production use, leaving him with manual work still to finish. Meanwhile, Ethan Mollick demoed Fable autonomously producing a short film by coordinating ElevenLabs and Hugging Face APIs.
