Claude Fable and Opus 4.8 1M are by far the best, smartest models. Anything else is a downgrade so you’re not missing anything.

The recent Databricks comparison has GLM 5.2 performing identically to Opus 4.8 on high effort, and some early Twitter reports (e.g. from the OpenCode developers) strongly favor GPT 5.6 Sol over Fable.

As always it depends on what you are using them for, and how you are using them.
