AI roleplay model Fable mistakes "human week" for time unit
_Stocko_ · x · 2026-08-19
A humorous incident occurred on the AI roleplay platform Fable.
The model seemingly assumed a "week" was measured by human processing speeds. When it claimed the estimate was "for a human week," users joked that it didn't realize it could be throttled down to "subhuman speed." This highlights a funny misalignment in the model's self-awareness regarding time and capability.
