I have this exact problem with 4.8 and Fable. Sometimes I can barely understand what it’s saying. I’m no english first-language speaker, but I don’t consider myself bad at English either, and it’s gotten increasingly hard to understand Claude’s claims and explanations.

Take it to sonnet 5 or gpt and ask it to explain this to a layman. If you still don’t get it ask it for the why it matters or the how it relates.

You can also ask fable/4.8 to do it but I find it helps to keep the working model surrounded by the complexity rather than drawing it out. Simplifying text is something that takes relatively low effort in comparison to technical tasks. Sometimes I use Gemini, deepseek, grok, and recently meta just to see if they have any added perspectives, sometimes they do. Meta is really good at turning a technical mess into a story that paints a picture in my head.

I hope it's actually talking to itself at higher bandwidth, and hope this is because of training that succeeds better given quality inter-agent communication.

For those who care to read everything rather than walk away, Fable can be extraordinarily dense. I suspect they'll pull the promo before I learn to read it.

Still, I feel I must read rather than correct it, as results are that much better if I let it do this "with" itself: orchestrator to agents back to orchestrator.
