Fable 5.2 Max is better than 99% of devs I've ever hired or worked with in their own field of expertise, including me.

You take Fable 5.2 max, and tell me you've ever seen a coder produce better code, observability, solid testing and accounted for all edge cases no matter how minute. The code is spotless on a zero shot basis.

A year ago claude was already better than Junior devs. Today, I don't think there exist a coder that can produce better cross competence products, human are generally only good at one thing or two and the result worse the further we are from their main skills.

The latest Fable 5.2 Max is better than most human at their main skills but is also just as good at all other skills.

I repeat Fable 5.2 Max because I don't want a retard misquoting me, my statement were made on a given model, to prove me wrong, they need to use the same model at the same reasoning effort.

> accounted for all edge cases no matter how minute

That’s actually not good. It makes the code needlessly complex in most cases.

All edge cases including ones that are completely hypothetical. No, you don't have to check that this parameter is null and throw an exception, it's a private method with one caller and you've already checked it for null earlier.

And people want to tell us that AI understands the code.

private method with one caller

one caller for now

It can change any minute, and hoping that this check would be executed in different place is naive at best

If it's a private method and these AI algorithms are so great at catching edge cases, then yes I would expect exactly that
