Commenter turns bearish: Chinese frontier models may hit a wall for months
teortaxesTex · x · 2026-11-11
AI commentator teortaxesTex says he's no longer convinced the upcoming generation of Chinese models makes real progress toward the likes of Fable 5.1 or Opus 5.5, warning they may face a wall for the next few months — 'hope to be wrong.'
The quoted post is more optimistic, speculating that Fable 5.2's release will ripple into open-weight ecosystem: future Qwen 4.5, GLM-5.6 and DeepSeek-v5 could first match Fable-5.1, then chase 5.2.
