I’m using Claude Fable 5 to orchestrate thousands of precise exercise images for resistance training. Eccentric & concentric positions with perfect form — it’s highly complex. Using GPT 5.6 Sol + Image Gen 2 (more accurate images) vs Grok 4.5 + Imagine (better validation). 🧵 1/6

Pro Tip: never use /goal on GPT 5.6 Sol Ultra. Finish already, PLEASE...

@ScottPresler @SpeakerJohnson This means nothing. Still requires 60 votes. Democrats will just block it. It’s just lipstick on a pig you’re still taking to slaughter.

OH MY GOSH! The House just voted 215-211 in favor of a special rules resolution, which instructs for the text of the SAVE America to be attached to the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA). The House is doing its job. @SpeakerJohnson is keeping his promise.

Hello. We have reached 8M active users across Codex and ChatGPT Work. We are once again resetting the usage limits for all. And we continue to not have the 5h rate limit as well, allowing everyone to explore the boundaries of GPT-5.6 Sol and discover how ambitious you can be. See you tomorrow for more updates on our growth!
Sam Altman@sama

5.6 sol growth is insane. the inference team has done heroic work to be able to support demand. we are going to move mountains to continue to scale, but it is possible there are some hiccups soon.

@jpbuildslab Right now it’s falling back to Grok after GPT fails 2 isolated retries (fresh agent, no previous context). Groks image quality is a lower than I need so some of those images are a little off.

@alex_vance That whole-image vs. surgical-edit split is really useful. Are you choosing the model manually for each edit, or do cues like heel drop, wrist flexion, and rotation route to a model automatically?

A few bloopers from GPT Image Gen v2 had me dying this morning - reverse hack squat and barbell good mornings… amazing.

Is Codex / GPT 5.6 Sol getting stuck randomly for everybody else? I'm consistently having to stop and start conversations over again. TIA @OpenAI #Codex #Sol #GPT56

I ran Fable for 22 hours straight and still didn’t hit rate limits… even on the $100 plan. I’m at 94% weekly usage, but I was surprised it lasted as long as it did. Using Fable 5 as the orchestrator is the best way to use this model to conserve tokens. Change my mind🔥

@MKBHD Seriously, I cannot believe it’s taken this long to get separate volume for Alarms. I mean the most basic, yet impactful feature they should have done literally the second they saw Android had it.

3) Human in-the-loop is absolutely still necessary. Despite using 3 separate models, validation failures (not catching defects) still occurred about 23% of the time. An example you'll see here is the frame actually gets taller instead of pivoting.

2) "Change exactly one thing, keep everything else pixel-faithful" fixed ~95% of detail defects in a single shot. Changing too much forces a full redraw.

@elonmusk Now make the privacy setting the first prompt a user sees in Grok Build and this problem goes away entirely.

True. As a precautionary measure, all user data that was uploaded to SpaceXAI before now will be completely and utterly deleted. Zero anything whatsoever will remain.
Andrew Milich@milichab

I worked on building an end-to-end encrypted email/docs/files/calendar app @skiffprivacy for 4 years and care deeply about privacy. ZDR and /privacy are always respected in Grok Build - and swapping your setting with /privacy deletes any synced data retoractively
