Karpathy reviews Fable 5: Software flows out like tap water, making people want to completely ignore the code for the first time
CryptoWorld Network reports that Karpathy spoke highly of Anthropic’s Fable 5, saying it delivers a cross-generational performance leap, is especially good at long-context debugging, and can quickly understand intent and proceed independently. However, he cautioned that in production environments, you cannot completely ignore the code. He noted that if software supply were as abundant as tap water, it would trigger Jevons’ paradox, leading to a large number of one-time-use tools and massive test datasets. At the same time, the initial security hardening configuration is too sensitive and needs further optimization.
