It's a lossy conversion though. "Mistake" is relative to the stated goals and specifications which are often heavily lacking. So unless you write with a high degree of architectural and implementation specificity then it might make very high quality code that is still not what you wanted.

You can ask for a complete feature/app/business. Or you can split up the work into verifiable/testable pieces and rely on a high quality AI to deliver. As time goes by the pieces will get larger as capability grows. I still trust myself and my experience when arch is involved, but AI has been great at tackling lower level stuff. And with Fable I don't really care it takes a while for it to complete, as I know I can trust it a lot more (which is what I personally prefer). Yes, with a 10k tps model you can iterate quickly. But that's not me personally.

But some requirements you don't realize you have until you start building. With a fast model, you can surface those really quickly and have more time to iterate and explore different solutions. With a slower but smarter model, you just hope that what it produces after an hour is what you were imagining.

And yes, with Fable, the chance of that is higher than with SWE/Composer, but in my experience it's not so much higher that the extra time and cost is worth it. But it certainly depends on your goals and what you're building.
