Developers using Fable seem to often get downgraded because of false positives on cybersecurity or biology questions, but I’ve never seen that on GPT-5.6 Sol until today. Trying to find vulnerabilities in my own code. Fascinating and annoying.

Don't be a meat proxy
Niklas Gruhn coins an excellent new term - meat proxy - for people who blindly copy and paste the output of AI systems to their peers. By all means, prompt AI. But don't just relay the output. Read it, understand it, validate it, and then write a response in your own words (a decent certificate that you've done the prior steps). Making that effort is value you can add.
