It actually happens. Chat GPT 5.6 is out

0:03

and I am totally blown away. But, is it

0:06

better than Fable 5? I have a definitive

0:09

answer for you. In this video, I'll

0:11

cover what Chat GPT 5.6 is, the

0:15

improvements it made, do an in-depth

0:17

breakdown against Fable 5, show you who

0:20

the clear winner is, and then show you

0:22

an amazing workflow that will change how

0:25

you use AI forever. This is the most

0:27

important video you'll watch in a very

0:30

long time. Make sure you lock in and

0:32

let's get into it. Days like today are

0:34

the absolute best if if you're into

0:37

technology, congratulations, you are

0:38

going to have a lot of fun right after

0:40

this video. This is Chat GPT 5.6. I've

0:44

had early access. I've been using it

0:46

time. So, all the people that go in the

0:47

comments go, "Oh, how'd you get a video

0:49

out so quick? What the hell? What's

0:50

going on?" Shut up. I've been using it.

0:52

Now, let's get into it. Chat GPT 5.6,

0:55

three models, Luna, Sol, Terra. The one

0:57

we're going to talk about today is Sol.

0:58

That's their biggest model. That's the

1:00

one everyone goes, "Oh, how's it

1:01

compared to Fable? Is it better than

1:02

Fable?" That's the one we're going to be

1:04

talking about is Sol. So, Sol is the

1:06

smartest, Terra is kind of the medium,

1:08

Luna is the efficient one, like the Chat

1:10

GPT mini. So, it's Sol is the one we

1:12

care I care about brains. So, let's talk

1:14

about that. They also have many

1:16

different thinking levels now. They have

1:18

like seven different thinking levels.

1:20

Ultra is the one I'm using. The reason

1:22

why we can use the smartest Chat GPT

1:25

model with the highest level thinking is

1:27

because Chat GPT is so kind when it

1:30

comes to usage. It gives you a ton of

1:33

usage. So, you don't have to be scared

1:35

like you are with Anthropic of using the

1:36

highest thinking levels then two prompts

1:38

later you have no more usage. Chat GPT,

1:41

you can use the highest thinking levels

1:43

and still get a ton of usage out of it.

1:46

They have a fast mode, which is in my

1:48

opinion revolutionary. I'll tell you

1:51

you're getting Fable level thinking on a

1:55

really, really fast speed. One challenge

1:58

I've had with Fable over the last couple

2:00

weeks is it's just slow. It's a slow

2:02

model. But, ChatGPT 5 6 Soul Ultra on

2:06

fast mode, lightning fast. It is the

2:09

best model in some ways. We'll get into

2:11

the Fable comparison in just a second.

2:13

Stick around me. Here we go in-depth.

2:15

Who's the winner? I hand a trophy out.

2:17

It is the best model in some ways, but

2:19

it is without a doubt the best harness

2:23

Codex, which we'll also talk about that

2:25

in a second. It's gone. Is the best

2:27

harness at the best price at the best

2:31

speed. Some also Also, some changes

2:35

announced today. We'll go into in-depth

2:37

breakdowns on subsequent videos. Let me

2:39

know what you want me to do most.

2:40

ChatGPT works on these other things.

2:42

Codex app no more. It's gone. They

2:45

combined it with the ChatGPT app, which

2:48

I actually believe is a very smart move.

2:50

Codex was the best harness. They're

2:52

bringing all those nice features over to

2:56

the ChatGPT app. It's all in one. I

2:58

didn't like the separate apps. I'm a fan

3:00

of this move. Codex is no more. It is

3:02

changed on mobile as well. So, if you

3:04

use Codex on mobile, if you use Codex on

3:07

iPad, which I highly, highly recommend

3:09

you do, it's now called remote sessions.

3:12

They really want you using this in a

3:13

very specific way on mobile, which I'll

3:15

talk about a little bit in a second as

3:17

well. I actually think the iPad

3:19

experience now is like the best

3:20

experience. I I use the iPad a ton. I'll

3:22

talk about that, too. But, the iPad

3:24

experience for chat I don't even think

3:27

they're like trying to make it good. It

3:28

actually is very good. I'll talk about

3:30

why I think it's awesome, too. But,

3:32

let's do the comparison everyone and

3:34

their mothers is waiting for. ChatGPT 5

3:37

6 with Fable 5. Which is the winner?

3:39

Well, I'm going to show you the

3:40

comparison between the two, what the

3:42

differences are, and then I'll tell you

3:44

the winner once we go through this.

3:45

We'll make this quick. I have been using

3:48

the absolute booty load out of Fable 5

3:50

last week. I don't even know what booty

3:52

load means. I just dropped that. As you

3:54

can see here, I hit extra usage

3:56

yesterday. I've spent $500 of credits in

3:59

the last 24 hours of Fable 5. I've been

4:02

using the absolute hell out of it. So, I

4:04

am in-depth in the weeds on Fable 5. I

4:07

know how it works inside and out. How

4:09

does it compare to 5.6? Well, let's take

4:11

a look at this here. Fable 5 is still

4:14

better for planning and high-level

4:17

thinking and understanding of large code

4:19

bases. It is the best when it comes

4:21

specifically to that. I'll give you an

4:24

example. I have like an entire software

4:26

factory I've built out inside of Codex

4:29

and Claude code that allows you to kind

4:31

of autonomously build a lot of software.

4:33

It's very complex, in-depth. If you want

4:35

a video on that, let me know down below.

4:37

I'll do a whole video on loops and

4:38

software factory if you're interested.

4:40

But, here's the thing. When I gave that

4:43

to Fable 5, I said, "Hey, look at my

4:45

entire software factory and understand

4:47

how it works." It understood it pretty

4:49

much instantly. It was able to pick it

4:51

up and start doing work in the factory

4:53

like it was been there like it's been

4:54

there for years. When I handed the

4:56

software factory over to ChatGPT 5.6

5:00

initially when I got early access, I'm

5:02

going to be honest, it did not pick it

5:03

up immediately. It took a while. I had

5:05

to kind of nudge it in different

5:06

directions until it finally grasped how

5:09

it worked. So, when it comes to

5:12

understanding large code bases, being a

5:14

high-level wise thinker, understanding

5:17

from like a CEO level what's going on, I

5:21

would say Fable 5's better. But, now

5:23

let's talk about actual execution,

5:25

actual building. 5.6 the winner. 5.6 is

5:29

the winner for many, many different

5:31

reasons. The code quality is just as

5:34

good as Fable 5. The code it's putting

5:36

on is just as good, but it is more

5:38

eager. So, the tables have kind of

5:40

flipped here where ChatGPT 5.6 is more

5:43

eager than Fable. So, it will get tasks

5:46

done. You can give it major, major

5:48

tasks, and it will grab it, it will get

5:50

it all done, it will add a whole bunch

5:51

of extra features to it. It'll be

5:53

fantastic at that. This was Claude's

5:56

strength for a long time. That kind of

5:58

eagerness of getting a ton done was

5:59

Claude's strength for a very long time.

6:02

ChatGPT has overtaken that. So, when it

6:04

comes to execution, when it comes to

6:06

actual building, 5.6 is the winner. Now,

6:09

after this comparison we're going

6:11

through, I'm going to actually show you

6:12

the workflow. Everyone and their mothers

6:13

is going on Twitter saying, "Oh, use

6:16

ChatGPT as a sub-agent inside of Claude

6:18

code." No, that's not the best way to do

6:20

it. I'll show you the best way to do it

6:21

in a second. You'll learn the best

6:22

workflow once we go through this, once I

6:24

declare the winner between ChatGPT 5.6

6:27

and Fable 5. Workflow coming right after

6:29

this. Let's talk about price, and this

6:31

is going to be a deal breaker for most

6:32

people. Fable 5 unreasonably expensive.

6:35

So expensive, I actually think this

6:38

model will die. I think Fable 5 is the

6:40

smartest AI model, potentially the

6:42

greatest technology ever made. I think

6:44

it's dead in the water. I was shocked

6:47

when I started going into API pricing,

6:49

and I within a few hours used hundreds

6:52

of dollars of credits. That's absolutely

6:55

insane. No normal person is going to

6:58

want to pay that price, and then you

6:59

even look at the enterprise right now.

7:01

Companies are cutting out frontier

7:04

models and using things like GLM 5.2 cuz

7:06

costs are getting so high. I don't know

7:09

who Fable 5 is for. It's absolutely

7:12

genius level. I was uh prepared to tell

7:14

everyone, "Hey, to be paying API pricing

7:16

for it." And the moment I started paying

7:17

API pricing for it, I'm like, "Wait a

7:20

second. No, no, no, no, no. Done with

7:22

this, done with Fable." Uh unreasonably

7:25

expensive. It is so unreasonable, in

7:28

fact, that I believe they're going to

7:29

push up Opus 5. I think in the next week

7:32

Opus 5 comes out. I believe I don't

7:34

think it's Fable level. I believe it's

7:36

very close to Fable level, but at way

7:39

more reasonable prices. I just don't see

7:41

how Fable fits into the picture with

7:43

what I'm about to show you with ChatGPT.

7:46

No one in their right mind, unless

7:47

you're just outrageously rich, is going

7:49

to be spending $500 a day on credits.

7:51

And this wasn't even like a full day of

7:52

coding. This was like an afternoon, like

7:54

1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. of coding, $500.

7:57

That is crazy. ChatGPT 5.6, it's more

8:01

affordable, right? It's way more

8:03

affordable than Fable 5. It is still

8:05

costly. I have never, I'm going to be

8:07

honest with you, and I do this all day,

8:10

I've never hit my limits with ChatGPT

8:12

before. That's never happened to me. 5,

8:15

5, everything before that, I've never

8:17

hit my limits. I hit my limits for the

8:19

first time yesterday using ChatGPT 5.6.

8:22

That's never happened before. So, it is

8:25

more expensive than the other ChatGPT

8:28

models. I did hit my 5-hour window. I

8:30

didn't come close to the weekly window.

8:32

5-hour window though, I hit the limit. I

8:34

I started having to use API pricing. I

8:37

was using Soul at Ultra level. So, like,

8:41

if you go super hardcore on their most

8:43

expensive model, you could hit limits.

8:46

But, at the end of the day, it is way

8:48

more affordable and reasonable than

8:50

Fable 5. UI was always ChatGPT's

8:53

weakness. It's now good. It's good

8:54

enough at UI now. It It certainly

8:56

improved it. It's good enough. It's not

8:58

a concern now where you need to jump to

9:00

Claude every single time. Claude is

9:01

better at UI still. Here's where I

9:03

actually think the winner comes in, and

9:06

this is why I am going to declare

9:08

ChatGPT 5.6 the winner.

9:11

The harness around ChatGPT is so much

9:15

better. It's so much better. The

9:17

computer use is significantly better.

9:19

The browser use is significantly better.

9:21

Claude has made jumps here lately, but

9:24

ChatGPT, the harness, doing things for

9:27

you, signing up for websites, getting

9:29

API keys, I've never been more confident

9:33

when giving a model a task that it will

9:36

do literally whatever it takes to get it

9:39

done. It will pop open the browser, will

9:41

control your computer, it will do

9:43

whatever it needs in order to get that

9:46

task done. And that is a feeling and

9:49

emotion that I've never had with Claude

9:52

inside their harness, which for me leads

9:56

me to crown Chad GPT 5.6 the winner

10:00

because that feeling of knowing when you

10:03

give a task to a model, knowing it will

10:05

get done is an invaluable feeling. Even

10:08

though there's some weaknesses when it

10:10

comes to planning, high-level thinking,

10:12

figuring very large code bases out that

10:15

it doesn't really match up with Fableon,

10:17

the fact that you can give it a task and

10:19

you know for certainty at the end it

10:22

will be done for a reasonable price

10:24

leads me to make Chad GPT 5.6 the

10:28

winner. The question becomes also little

10:30

things here. I'll do a video. Let me

10:31

know down below. Do you want a full

10:32

video on Hermes using Chad GPT 5.6 as

10:35

well? I'll do that. But this leads me to

10:38

the next section of this video, which is

10:41

the workflow. How do you actually use

10:43

it? We talked about what is better, how

10:45

it compares to Fable 5, what the new

10:47

changes are. How do you actually use it?

10:50

Everyone and their mother's been telling

10:52

you if you pay attention, Twitter, if

10:53

you're in the Twitter bubble, "Oh, set

10:56

up Chad GPT 5.6 as a sub agent inside

10:59

Claude code." No, do not do that. I will

11:01

show you the best way to do this. And

11:02

before we do that real quick, if you

11:04

learned anything so far, leave a like

11:06

down below, subscribe, turn on

11:08

notifications. All I do is make the

11:11

absolute stone cold best content about

11:14

AI on the entire internet. And if you

11:17

want to work with me live, I do live

11:20

bootcamps every single Friday in the

11:22

Vibe Coding Academy. It's the number one

11:24

community for people building with AI on

11:26

planet Earth. We're also doing a $1,000

11:29

hackathon right now. It ends in 2 weeks.

11:31

You can still join it, get in, build

11:33

something cool, submit it, you go in a

11:34

thousand dollars. We're doing it every

11:36

single month. Join the Vibe Coding

11:38

Academy, link down below for that. Let's

11:40

get into the workflow now. So, this is

11:43

the Codex app. I'm using Codex app for

11:45

now cuz I am filming this right before

11:47

the model comes out. So, I'm still using

11:49

the Codex app before it's combined with

11:51

ChatGPT. But, here's how you want to use

11:54

this. Here's how you want to use ChatGPT

11:55

5.6. First, we'll talk about from the

11:57

harness level. You want to choose one

12:00

computer or device you own to be kind of

12:03

the head development machine. The reason

12:07

why you want to do this is the remote

12:08

control capabilities of ChatGPT are

12:11

incredible. You can control ChatGPT from

12:15

any device you have, iPad, iPhone, any

12:17

of your computers, Mac Mini. So, what

12:19

you want to do is choose your kind of

12:21

main developer machine. This should be a

12:24

desktop device. I'm using one of my Mac

12:27

Studios, my Mac Studio 1. I have three

12:30

of them, not to flex on you, but kind of

12:32

a flex. I'm using my first one as my

12:35

main developer machine. Now, every other

12:38

device you have will be a node to that.

12:41

Here's how you want to think about it.

12:42

So, you have your main development

12:43

machine where you're using ChatGPT or

12:45

Codex, and then every other device you

12:48

own will control that. So, if you have a

12:50

desktop and you have a laptop, your

12:52

laptop controls it, your iPad, your

12:53

iPhone, everything controls this one

12:56

place. And the reason why you want to do

12:57

it this way is so that you have all your

13:00

code in one place. Instead of having

13:02

some features on your laptop, your

13:03

desktop, some features on your iPhone,

13:05

your iPad, it all goes to one place. And

13:08

because the remote control functionality

13:10

is so good on the ChatGPT and Codex

13:13

apps, you can easily control from all

13:16

your different devices. So, choose a

13:17

device, make sure it's a desktop if you

13:20

have one. The reason being is you can

13:22

leave your desktop on 24/7 365. Laptops,

13:25

you got to close it, puts it in sleep

13:27

mode, different things like that. So,

13:29

make sure you have kind of a desktop

13:30

device, a Mac Studio, a gaming computer,

13:32

whatever you got, make that your main

13:34

computer. Even if you just have like an

13:36

old dusty laptop in your closet that you

13:39

can put on 24/7 mode and plug it in, use

13:42

that. Something that can be up 24/7 365.

13:45

So, from there you have your projects

13:47

and you have your chats inside of each

13:49

of the projects. I'm going over kind of

13:51

high-level tips in here. We can do a

13:52

deep dive building out a full app end to

13:55

end on a subsequent video if you want,

13:56

let me know down below. But, what we're

13:58

going to do is you want to kind of have

14:00

your factory admin chat in each project.

14:03

This is the high-level chat where you

14:05

can be like, "Okay, merge the code,

14:07

create a PR, do this." Where it's kind

14:09

of managing your entire factory. And

14:12

then every other chat from there is

14:14

going to be building out specific

14:16

features for that project. So, you have

14:18

your main admin chat where you can go in

14:20

from any of your devices and say, "Hey,

14:22

what's the status? What's uncommitted

14:24

code we have? What PRs do we have to

14:26

merge?" Things like that. It's kind of

14:28

your high-level admin. And then every

14:30

other chat is for specific features

14:32

you're building out. Now, we said

14:34

earlier Fable 5 is a better planning

14:37

model and I I stand by that. So, what

14:40

you want to do is you want to use Fable

14:43

5 for planning. So, if you have a

14:44

project, you open it up inside Claude

14:47

Code, you go into Fable 5 mode. I'd go

14:50

on high. If you go on ultra code or

14:53

higher, you spend hundreds of dollars

14:55

for a single prompt. Just use high. When

14:58

you're doing any sort of planning,

15:00

you'll come into Claude Code, you will

15:01

ask for the plan. "Hey, this is what I'm

15:03

thinking about building. Please build

15:04

out a very large spec." If you've been

15:06

paying attention to all my videos, you

15:08

know I talk about Linear and how I use

15:10

Linear in my entire process. So, if

15:12

you're using Linear, have it build the

15:13

spec out in Linear. If not, totally fine

15:15

to say, "Hey, build a markdown file."

15:18

Then, what you will do is you will take

15:19

that markdown file, go into your

15:21

projects, drop it in, and say, "Here's

15:24

the plan, build this out for me." Now, a

15:27

lot of people are telling you to use a

15:29

ChatGPT sub-agent inside of Claude Code

15:32

to do execution. I don't like that at

15:34

all because when you do that, you're

15:36

missing out on all the amazing features

15:39

of the ChatGPT harness. The ChatGPT

15:42

harness does so many things so well for

15:45

you. So, for instance, I'm building out

15:47

my app, Henry Intelligent Machines, link

15:50

down below if you want to get an early

15:51

preview of that, and I'm having it test

15:53

some of the action generation inside the

15:55

app. In Henry, you launch a venture, and

15:57

then it generates a bunch of actions

15:59

that you need to do to push your

16:00

business forward. I wanted to test that.

16:03

Typically, when testing that, you would

16:05

need to open up a browser, go through

16:07

the flow yourself, click on things

16:09

yourself, but all I do is I go in and I

16:12

say, "Hey, test this out for me. Load it

16:15

up into a browser, walk through it for

16:17

me, do it five times, and then build the

16:20

report on that." And that is what

16:21

ChatGPT does. It opens up its own

16:24

browser and runs all the servers. It

16:26

gets whatever API keys it needs, it

16:28

plugs them in, and it runs through

16:30

everything. So, it said what I tested,

16:33

actually opens it up, started a venture,

16:36

did a bunch of different actions, tested

16:38

everything out. It did all the testing

16:40

for me. Something that would have

16:42

typically taken me an hour before took

16:44

24 minutes for ChatGPT while I did other

16:47

things. So, your workflow is get the

16:50

planning from Claude Code, move it over

16:53

to ChatGPT,

16:55

and then you give the actions to

16:57

ChatGPT. Here is the mindset I have.

17:00

Anything you would manually need to do

17:04

before when vibe coding, I just tell

17:07

ChatGPT to do it. Anything it is. It

17:09

doesn't matter what it is. If they say,

17:10

"Hey, sign up for this account," I go,

17:12

"No, you do it." If they say, "Hey, can

17:14

you grab this API key?" I say, "No, you

17:16

do it." If they say, "Hey, can you

17:17

connect these two things together move

17:19

this file over here, I say no, you do

17:21

it. Chad G P T literally 100% of the

17:24

time I have said hey, no, you do it.

17:27

It's figured out how to do it. That's

17:29

why this harness is so good when it

17:31

comes to computer use, when it comes to

17:33

browser use, it is absolutely next

17:34

level. It is bar none not comparable to

17:37

Claude code whatsoever. That's why the

17:40

workflow is get your plans from Claude

17:42

code, move them over to Chad G P T code

17:45

X and then you say no, you do this. You

17:47

handle this. And it will get done and it

17:49

will save you tons of time. Now while

17:51

you're in here, I do soul ultra for

17:54

everything. It's the stone cold best. If

17:56

you're on the $200 a month plan, you can

17:58

get away with using fast for a lot of

18:00

things. Again, I hit my limits using

18:02

fast here for the first time in my

18:03

entire life in Chad G P T. So maybe you

18:06

don't use fast quite as much, but if

18:08

you're on soul ultra on normal speeds,

18:10

you can use up your $200 plan. Like you

18:13

you're not going to hit your limits.

18:14

You're going to have plenty of usage,

18:16

which I cannot say for fable because I

18:18

use the plan up in like a day and then

18:20

when I went into API pricing, it was

18:21

outrageous, out of control. 5.6 is the

18:24

winner. It is my new daily driver. It is

18:26

what you need to be using for pretty

18:27

much everything outside of high level

18:30

understanding, planning and some kind of

18:32

UI tweaks if need be. It's still pretty

18:34

good at UI. By the way, for the hardcore

18:37

Alex Finn fans who know all about the

18:39

world famous Alex Finn benchmark, yes,

18:41

it blew away the benchmarks. This is the

18:43

first person shooter test. It is

18:45

absolutely incredible. It has it has

18:48

crits, dynamic enemies, it has great

18:50

explosions, it has great waves.

18:52

The graphics are fantastic. The sounds

18:54

are amazing. I don't know if you can

18:55

hear the sounds or not. The power ups

18:57

are incredible. Like there's like 10

18:58

different dynamic enemies. It's

19:00

incredible. Chad G P T 5.6 won the

19:03

benchmark test. I am really, really

19:06

impressed. And what's incredible is over

19:08

the next few weeks we're actually

19:10

expecting G P T 6. We're expecting the

19:12

next level. The The rumors I am hearing

19:15

are that it's coming very soon. They're

19:16

already done training it. They're just

19:18

doing testing now. So, expect more

19:21

videos like this very very soon. If you

19:23

19:26

Again, live boot camp tomorrow, $1,000

19:29

hackathon next couple weeks. Join the

19:32

Vibe Coding Academy link down below. I

19:34

love you all. It's an honor to teach you

19:36

these things. It's an honor to work with

19:38

you. We will talk soon.

Interactive Summary

This video provides an in-depth review and comparison of the newly released Chat GPT 5.6 against Fable 5. The host evaluates their performance, pricing, and capabilities, ultimately crowning Chat GPT 5.6 as the superior daily driver due to its exceptional 'harness' capabilities—specifically its ability to handle browser and computer tasks autonomously. The video also outlines an optimal 'vibe coding' workflow: using Fable 5 for high-level planning and architectural specs, then transferring those plans to Chat GPT 5.6 to handle the execution, testing, and manual computer interactions.
