I posted the pelican a couple of days ago: https://simonwillison.net/2026/Jun/9/claude-fable-5/#and-som...

It wasn't particularly noteworthy as pelicans go - in fact, given the strength of Fable, I see it as another signal that the pelican benchmark no longer has the unexplained predictive power of model capacity that it used to.

Ha, thanks for the reply!

I’m waiting for when it replies “AGAIN simonw? Do you really still need a pelican on a bicycle for every new release. Sigh, ok if I have to…”

The other day someone told me they'd asked a recent model for a pelican on a bicycle and it had replied "oh, the classic..."

wow, this is a life goal.
