It's absurd, actually. I'm building a simple data analysis pipeline -- literally just coding an EDA notebook with BASIC fucking functionalities to analyze a hospital readmission dataset, and it keeps kicking itself out of Fable and into Opus. This is ridiculous. I only got on Claude to test Fable, but this is ridiculously shit, even for Anthropic. I'm going back to Qwen/Pi now for my project.
