Context
A robot-arm test shows how two AI models handled an imperfect camera view. Reviewer Bijan Bowen reports that OpenAI's Astra moved a toy car across the workspace in about 40 minutes, repeatedly taking pictures and making small adjustments (37:47).
Anthropic's Fable 5.1 instead used a more elaborate approach to estimating camera geometry and joint positions. Bowen stopped its unfinished attempt after 85 minutes, citing a desire to preserve the reviewer's usage allotment (43:54). The contrast concerns two approaches in one reviewer's run, with different allowed durations; it does not establish a general model ranking.
