Pelican SVG test: Fable 5.2 takes 25 min/$25 vs Gemini 4 Hydrogen's 5 minutes
FinanceYF5 · x · 2026-11-11
Same prompt — a pelican riding a bicycle across five animated seasons: Fable 5.2 (high, Claude Code) took 25 minutes and $25, while Gemini 4 Hydrogen (Arena) finished in 5 minutes at unknown cost. The original poster found Hydrogen surprisingly competitive and possibly 10x cheaper when it launches; Fable's extra detailing raises the question of whether it's worth the time and cost.
