I asked Fable and Codex what my business should automate. They disagreed.
Watch now | The model I liked using less found the problem that mattered more. That result changed what I ask AI to do before I give it an assignment.
TL;DR
- Codex provided a smooth user experience and built a functional tool for content handoff.
- Fable was difficult to operate but identified a higher-leverage problem in story selection.
- The experiment highlights the difference between AI agents that complete assigned tasks and those that identify and tackle more significant underlying issues.
- The author questions whether AI should be tasked with executing instructions or with identifying the most important problems to solve.
- The author developed a reusable automation-discovery skill that presents multiple evidenced options for the user to choose from.
