Ethan Mollick says Claude Fable 5.2 is almost AGI but still falls short
AIEthan Mollick tested Claude Fable 5.2 on hardware hacking, business planning, academic research, creative projects, and a 3D world project. He concludes it is "almost" AGI under his limited definition, a view he calls Jagged AGI. He says the model failed to notice when its own work was joyless, overlong, or bureaucratic, which fell to him to catch.
AIWhy it matters.
Mollick's hands-on tests of Claude Fable 5.2 across hardware, business, research, and creative projects show where its capabilities fall short of general intelligence, making this a useful evidence-based benchmark of current AI limits.
