Which puts you in an odd spot: the smartest AI in the world is sitting in your app, and you have roughly one prompt a day to use it. So the question stops being what it can do, and becomes what on earth you should ask it. This video is my answer, built around one idea: treat it less like a chatbot and more like the Oracle of Delphi. I walk through the method I have been using all week. Leave the mundane jobs to the cheaper models. Use one of those cheaper models to help you draft the question first, then hand the finished thing to Fable 5 in a single fully specced shot, with a safety net so it never has to come back and ask. And the questions worth your one shot are the uncomfortable ones. Where am I wasting my time. What am I avoiding. What would embarrass me if someone sharp studied my work for an hour. Big model, big questions. It turns out the hard part was never the AI. —— Time Stamps —— 00:00 Fable Is Back: You Have Until July 7th 01:33 Fable Will Be the New Normal 02:07 Two Mistakes People Are Making With Fable 03:23 The Right Mindset: Big Model, Big Problems 04:49 Use a Dumber AI to Write Your Fable Prompts 06:34 Usage Limits & the One-Prompt Strategy 07:45 How I Use Fable: Brutal Self-Challenge Questions 09:26 The Real Skill: Asking Better Questions 10:45 Time-Sensitive: Why $20 Is Worth It Right Now 12:05 Your Homework This Weekend 13:04 Resources & Wrap-Up — Useful Resources —— Find everything else at https://aiwithkyle.com/
