Lots of emoji in that readme. Was it mainly codex?

Mainly Fable, but It was me who wanted to emojis added hah. I also of course edited the README by hand (crazy I know), but the code is entirely fable
i read around launch that anthropic will fallback to opus if fable is used for frontier LLM development. did you run into anything like that?
Strangely, I did not. I was expecting it and looking out for it the whole time. At least I never say a warning!
that's because they said they'll silently fallback in case of model training. Then they backtracked, and said they wont silently fallback, but how will anyone ever know?
why...?
I guess we found the target audience for models that slather READMEs in emojis.
The thing we must keep in mind with any of the AI-slop style writing is that it was reinforced behavior because humans wanted it.
To circumvent distillation.

Funny how I could tell without reading anything. I immediately lost interest upon noticing.
