Date: September 20th, 2026 10:46 AM Author: canary talking site water buffalo A year ago every business was trying to push AI and now they are having to backpedal now because if they opened this up their employees they would treat Opus like Google and burn $1000/day in API credit (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5905353&forum_id=2#50145085) |

Date: September 20th, 2026 1:19 PM Author: bossy plaza crotch How could you possibly spend this doing lol work? No way you can’t get buy with the 200 dollar per month plan, maybe adding some tokens when you run through your weekly quota sometimes but not 4K. You get like 8k worth with the plan.

Date: September 20th, 2026 4:02 PM Author: histrionic son of senegal I have $500/month and never come anywhere near blowing that. Granted, that is just Claude. We also have Gemini and Harvey.
I also use Opus instead of the frontier models. Are you just having Fable/Mythos do everything? |

|
Date: September 21st, 2026 11:52 PM Author: Tan chapel goyim Yeah but it's terrible at doing work vs Opus 4.6 imo
Key is to use opus 5 or fable to orchestrate 4.6. Or just start the session with 4.6 and do the 1M context window hack |

Fable is good for project and workflow design architecture eg harnessing multiple models and ruminating about the latest open weight models and hardware configs
