I noticed this recently with Opus 5.5: you can tell it to "make this more fun" for a game project and it... makes it more fun.

It's neat (if unsurprising) that Fable 5.2 has this ability as well.

I wrote about Opus 5.5's sense of fun in more detail here: https://simonwillison.net/2026/Oct/28/vibe-game-development/

It's crazy how even the intro text to the Fable 5.2 Extra's game still reeks of AI. Like, wow, the models can make a game that almost makes sense, but still can't write text that sounds remotely like a human was involved!
