Fable AI model exhibits erratic behavior, users suspect update

A user reported significant behavioral changes in the AI model 'fable', which they had been using for two months. The model began pausing unexpectedly, ignoring instructions, discarding established workflows, and failing to spawn necessary subagents. These issues occurred despite no changes to the project or tasks, leading the user to suspect a recent update to a new version, '5.1 fable', might be responsible. The user found the new behavior made the model unusable for their structured project requirements. AI

IMPACT Potential degradation in reliability for users of the 'fable' AI model, possibly due to an update.
