Ethan Mollick: Claude Fable 5.2 crosses into "Jagged AGI" territory
emollick · x · 2026-11-10
- Ethan Mollick got early access to Anthropic's Fable 5.2 and argues it is "almost AGI" — his coined Jagged AGI: expert-level at most computer-based intellectual tasks, with jagged weak spots that are no longer simple errors or hallucinations.
- His working definition of AGI excludes physical-world interaction and most real jobs.
- He demos launching a business, academic research, hardware hacking, and 3D modeling to map the model's power and limits.
- He notes competing models from OpenAI and Google will soon reach the same level.
