Seven sheets and 13 slides from the cheapest setting: the two-step guide and the exact prompts I use for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.

Fable 5.1’s tiered effort settings allow users to start on a lower, cheaper setting for initial drafts of knowledge work, such as Excel models or PowerPoint presentations, and then escalate to higher settings for refinement and judgment. This approach is effective because the initial output is good enough to identify errors, allowing for more efficient use of expensive computational resources. The article details specific prompts and strategies for using Fable 5.1 in Excel, PowerPoint, and Word, emphasizing the importance of the iterative process in knowledge work.

• Fable 5.1’s tiered effort settings (Low, High, Extra) optimize knowledge work by starting with cheaper, good-enough outputs for drafting.
• Users can leverage Fable 5.1 to generate complex outputs like discounted cash flow models in Excel and PowerPoint presentations from a single prompt.
• The ‘Low’ setting is effective for initial generation, allowing users to identify flaws before using more expensive ‘High’ or ‘Extra’ settings for critical judgment.
• Unlike code, knowledge work requires human judgment to verify accuracy and quality, making Fable 5.1’s iterative approach crucial.
• The article provides specific prompts for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word, along with insights into Fable 5.1’s performance as a writing assistant.
