  1. 0:00This is my dog, Charlie, and for years,
  2. 0:02he's walked the same block every single
  3. 0:04day sniffing the same smells. But that
  4. 0:06was before Claude's Fable Five built him
  5. 0:08his own iPhone app called Charlie's
  6. 0:11Sniffari, which by the way, is a real
  7. 0:13game on my phone and it takes us
  8. 0:15somewhere new every single day on a
  9. 0:17walk. Now, I used Fable Five to build
  10. 0:18this entire thing with just one prompt
  11. 0:20and it turned out better than I could
  12. 0:22have ever imagined. So, in this video,
  13. 0:24I'm going to show you why Fable Five is
  14. 0:25on a completely new level when it comes
  15. 0:27to building apps. I'll show you why the
  16. 0:29look of an app matters way more than you
  17. 0:31think even if you're not an artist. And
  18. 0:33in the end, I'm going to put this
  19. 0:34head-to-head against Opus Four Coin
  20. 0:35Eight so you can see the difference and
  21. 0:37it's not even close. Now, unfortunately,
  22. 0:40even with the shots, we almost lost
  23. 0:42Charlie as a puppy to parvo. But after
  24. 0:44$12,000 in emergency care and a lot of
  25. 0:47sleepless, worried nights, Charlie
  26. 0:50fought through the whole thing and he
  27. 0:52survived. And now he's healthy and now
  28. 0:54he's spoiled and he's obsessed with one
  29. 0:56thing in this world and that is sniffing
  30. 0:58everything he can on walks. So, I had an
  31. 1:01idea. What if I could take my favorite
  32. 1:03thing, which is Fable Five, and build
  33. 1:05him an app that turns every walk into a
  34. 1:07brand new adventure or a Sniffari, which
  35. 1:10is like a safari but the whole point is
  36. 1:12to find new smells and new places that
  37. 1:14we've never been before. But that's just
  38. 1:16what I asked for. What Fable Five
  39. 1:18actually built turned out to be so much
  40. 1:19better than I expected and I can't wait
  41. 1:21for you to see the final result. So,
  42. 1:23let's jump right in. So, to build this,
  43. 1:25we need two things. First, we need Fable
  44. 1:27Five. That's the model that's going to
  45. 1:28write this entire app for us. And if you
  46. 1:30didn't know, Anthropic says that Fable
  47. 1:32Five is the most powerful model that
  48. 1:34they've ever put out, which is exactly
  49. 1:35the whole reason why we're building this
  50. 1:37app with Fable Five. And the second
  51. 1:39thing is it's all the art that goes into
  52. 1:41a game like this. And that's where Higgs
  53. 1:43Field comes in, who I want to thank
  54. 1:45today for sponsoring this video and
  55. 1:46being an amazing partner. And these are
  56. 1:48the two stars of the show. There's Fable
  57. 1:50Five and there's Higgs Field and
  58. 1:51together, they do some really awesome
  59. 1:53things. So, let's jump right in and take
  60. 1:54a look at what the prompt looks like to
  61. 1:56kick this thing off. Now, the prompt is
  62. 1:58the most important piece here because
  63. 1:59we're going to give Fable 5 just one
  64. 2:00prompt and we're going to let it run all
  65. 2:02the way through on its own. And for a
  66. 2:04prompt like this, I don't want to write
  67. 2:05it myself. You can see how long this
  68. 2:07prompt actually is. So, what I do
  69. 2:09instead is I have Claude write the
  70. 2:10prompt for me and I do that in three
  71. 2:12steps that I call the BIP method. First
  72. 2:14is brain dump. I just tell Claude
  73. 2:16everything that I want in the app. I'm
  74. 2:17telling it about the game. I'm telling
  75. 2:19it about the walking logic, the rewards,
  76. 2:21the leveling up. Literally everything
  77. 2:23that I can think of, I'm just putting
  78. 2:24into Claude. And then I have Claude
  79. 2:26interview me and ask me questions on
  80. 2:27things that I hadn't thought of yet. And
  81. 2:29finally, it takes all that information
  82. 2:31and it creates a really big detailed
  83. 2:33prompt that I can copy and paste right
  84. 2:35into Fable, which is exactly what I did
  85. 2:37along with a couple photos of Charlie.
  86. 2:39Now, I did give Fable a lot of autonomy
  87. 2:41here, but I did tell it that I wanted
  88. 2:43one thing. And that is I wanted my art
  89. 2:44to look like voxel art. Now, if you've
  90. 2:46never heard of that term before, voxel
  91. 2:48art is basically pixel art but in 3D.
  92. 2:51So, everything it builds is in these
  93. 2:53little blocks and I just thought it
  94. 2:54would look really cool for this app. And
  95. 2:56of course, I did tell it to generate all
  96. 2:57of the art through Higgs Field. But for
  97. 2:59everything else, I told it to be
  98. 3:01creative. I gave it creative freedom. I
  99. 3:03told it to surprise me because Fable 5
  100. 3:05is so powerful that I don't want to be
  101. 3:07the director. I want Fable 5 to be the
  102. 3:09director here. And of course, if you
  103. 3:10want to try this out yourself after the
  104. 3:11video, the link to the prompt along with
  105. 3:13my entire prompt library is completely
  106. 3:15free in the description. Now, in Claude
  107. 3:18code, I did run the command {slash}
  108. 3:20goal. And what that's basically going to
  109. 3:22do is it's going to force Fable to check
  110. 3:23its own work against the prompt that I
  111. 3:25created. So, it can't tell me that it's
  112. 3:27completely done until everything in the
  113. 3:29prompt is actually built and working.
  114. 3:31And since apparently I'm trying to blow
  115. 3:33through my entire weekly usage limit as
  116. 3:35fast as humanly possible, I'm also going
  117. 3:37to take that exact prompt and those
  118. 3:39exact photos and run it in Opus 4.8 at
  119. 3:42the same time in the background. And at
  120. 3:43the very end, we'll put them side by
  121. 3:45side and you can see which one looks
  122. 3:46better. So, building an app like this is
  123. 3:48actually easier than you think. There's
  124. 3:50four pieces to a project that we need to
  125. 3:51look at here. The first piece is the
  126. 3:53idea and the prompt. Now, the good news
  127. 3:55is we just did that together, so we can
  128. 3:57mark that off the list. But, that prompt
  129. 3:58is going to drive everything else from
  130. 4:00here. The second piece of that project
  131. 4:01that we need to look at is the plan.
  132. 4:03Now, this is where Fable 5 really shines
  133. 4:05because it's going to read the entire
  134. 4:07prompt and think through every single
  135. 4:09step, every single piece of the app
  136. 4:11before it starts building anything.
  137. 4:13Anthropic says that the more complex the
  138. 4:15task, the better Fable 5 is compared to
  139. 4:17any other model that's out there. That's
  140. 4:19exactly why I gave it one big prompt to
  141. 4:21run off of. Now, what Fable 5 can't
  142. 4:23actually do is make the images or
  143. 4:25animations itself. So, what it does is
  144. 4:26it acts as the creative director, and
  145. 4:28then it needs to hand it off to a
  146. 4:29partner like Higgsfield. And that takes
  147. 4:31us to the third piece of the project,
  148. 4:32which is the art itself. Now, you can
  149. 4:34see that Fable 5 is connecting right
  150. 4:36into Higgsfield and creating these
  151. 4:38images in real time. But, any image is
  152. 4:40only ever as good as the prompt that it
  153. 4:43was given. And that's exactly where
  154. 4:44Fable 5 comes in because it writes the
  155. 4:46best prompts out there. So, instead of
  156. 4:47me having to micromanage it for every
  157. 4:49single image that's trying to create,
  158. 4:51Fable 5 is the creative director here.
  159. 4:54Now, right here is Higgsfield's website,
  160. 4:55and it has every leading image and video
  161. 4:58and voice model that's out there, and
  162. 5:00it's all in one place. And even though
  163. 5:01we did all of this inside of Cloud Code,
  164. 5:03I still think that this part is pretty
  165. 5:05cool to show you. Now, if you go over to
  166. 5:06my asset folder here, you're going to
  167. 5:08see all the images and videos that Fable
  168. 5:10made. Now, if we click on one, it shows
  169. 5:12the exact model that was used. And also
  170. 5:15shows the exact prompt that Fable wrote
  171. 5:17to create it. Now, I never had to think
  172. 5:19about which photo or video model to use.
  173. 5:21For images, Fable and Higgsfield decided
  174. 5:23to use Nano Banana. For the animations,
  175. 5:26they picked Kling. And they even used
  176. 5:28Sea Dance for one of the videos. Now, I
  177. 5:30didn't have to tell it to do any of
  178. 5:31this, it just knew what model to pick
  179. 5:33automatically. Now, one thing is really
  180. 5:35important to think through when you're
  181. 5:36creating an app, and that is every
  182. 5:38single image has to have the same look.
  183. 5:40There has to be some consistency there.
  184. 5:43It can't drift. And because Fable 5
  185. 5:45holds the context for all of these
  186. 5:47images throughout the whole process.
  187. 5:49Every image looks like it came from the
  188. 5:50same place. Now, the good news here is
  189. 5:52that I don't have to download any of
  190. 5:53these images from Higgsfield's website.
  191. 5:55Since we're using Cloud Code with the
  192. 5:56Higgsfield connector, all of the files
  193. 5:58are just being saved straight to my
  194. 6:00computer. Now, take a look at the files
  195. 6:01over here on the top right. You can see
  196. 6:03that every single image that has been
  197. 6:04created is being downloaded to my
  198. 6:06computer as well. Now, hey, really
  199. 6:07quick, if you're enjoying this, please

  201. 6:11this video. It really helps out the
  202. 6:12channel and of course, I appreciate it.
  203. 6:14But, okay, on to piece number four,
  204. 6:16which is the app itself. All right,
  205. 6:18we'll take a look at this. So, Cloud
  206. 6:19Code has built the entire app and it has
  207. 6:22opened up a iPhone 17 simulator right
  208. 6:25here in Xcode. Now, if you've never
  209. 6:27heard of Xcode before, this is a tool
  210. 6:29that the real iOS developers use to
  211. 6:31build real iPhone apps. Now, it is
  212. 6:33completely free to download on a Mac,
  213. 6:35but let's take a look at what it built.
  214. 6:36So, let's start right here on the home
  215. 6:37screen. Now, I love this part right here
  216. 6:39because Charlie's at the top and you can
  217. 6:41actually interact with him if you want
  218. 6:42to. He's sitting there, he's blinking,
  219. 6:45he's animated. And if you tap him, he
  220. 6:47does a little trick. Now, this whole
  221. 6:48interactive piece is a cling animation
  222. 6:50that Higgsfield built. It took the image
  223. 6:52of Charlie, it turned him into a
  224. 6:53character, and now you can play with him
  225. 6:55on the app. If you scroll down a little
  226. 6:56bit, you're going to see today's
  227. 6:58Sniffari, which is the walk of the day.
  228. 7:00Now, I can pick how long I want this to
  229. 7:01go. Now, when I pick one, it's going to
  230. 7:03show me the exact route that I need to
  231. 7:04take on the map along with the top sniff
  232. 7:06spots along the way. If you scroll down
  233. 7:08just a little bit more, you're going to
  234. 7:09see that there is a daily quest. Now,
  235. 7:12these are little goals that Charlie and
  236. 7:13I can do together. And if we complete
  237. 7:15them, we get a treasure chest, which
  238. 7:17just gives us some bonus points in the
  239. 7:19app. Now, right below that, you're going
  240. 7:21to see the exact percentage of the whole
  241. 7:22neighborhood that we've explored so far.
  242. 7:24Now, if I jump over to the explore tab,
  243. 7:26this is my full map of the neighborhood.
  244. 7:28Now, you can see that it's covered in
  245. 7:29fog, so every street that we walk down
  246. 7:32clears that fog away. And the whole goal
  247. 7:34is to uncover parts that we've never
  248. 7:35been to, which gives Charlie brand new
  249. 7:37sniffs. Now, this isn't actually my
  250. 7:38neighborhood because we are running on a
  251. 7:40simulator right now and doesn't know
  252. 7:42exactly where I'm at. But there is this
  253. 7:43little toggle button for a demo walk. So
  254. 7:46no GPS is needed. But once I put this on
  255. 7:48my actual phone, it will use my real
  256. 7:49GPS. Now there's so much more here, but
  257. 7:52it would take forever to go through
  258. 7:53everything. But there are little
  259. 7:55celebrations and animations and sound
  260. 7:57effects that were built in. But the
  261. 7:58point here is that it built a real app
  262. 8:00that turned out amazing. And remember,
  263. 8:02all of this started with just one
  264. 8:04prompt. Okay, two things really quick
  265. 8:06before we wrap this up. First, I do want
  266. 8:08to show you how you can set up Higgs
  267. 8:09Field inside of Claude yourself. And
  268. 8:10then I'm going to show you what the Opus
  269. 8:124.8 build came up with. So setting up
  270. 8:14Higgs Field inside of Claude is really
  271. 8:16easy. What you're going to do is you're
  272. 8:17going to go to settings. And then you're
  273. 8:19going to go to connectors. And then
  274. 8:21you're going to add a custom connector.
  275. 8:23You're going to name it Higgs Field. And
  276. 8:25then you'll paste in this MCP server
  277. 8:27address that I have on the screen right
  278. 8:28now. And of course, I'll drop this into
  279. 8:30the description as well if you want to
  280. 8:32copy and paste it. And second, remember
  281. 8:34I told you that we're running this exact
  282. 8:36same prompt through Opus 4.8 at the same
  283. 8:38time because I wanted to see what the
  284. 8:40difference looked like. So let's take a
  285. 8:42quick look at how it turned out. So
  286. 8:43Fable 5 obviously is the smarter model
  287. 8:45and you already saw what they came up
  288. 8:47with. But Opus did an okay job. It's not
  289. 8:49bad. But when you put them side by side,
  290. 8:51it's not even close to what Fable built.
  291. 8:53But unfortunately, Opus is missing a ton
  292. 8:55of features and it just doesn't have
  293. 8:57that same polish that Fable built for
  294. 8:59us. So for me, Fable is the clear winner
  295. 9:01here. So that's Fable 5 building our app
  296. 9:03Charlie's Sniffari using Higgs Field for
  297. 9:06all of the art. And every prompt that
  298. 9:08was used today is in the prompt library
  299. 9:10in the description for free. So go ahead
  300. 9:12and check that out. And of course, click
  301. 9:14the Higgs Field link yourself because it
  302. 9:16is such a cool product. And if you're
  303. 9:18into AI and trying to learn AI, this is
  304. 9:20such a staple product that you need to
  305. 9:22learn. So thank you for watching and I
  306. 9:24will see you in the next one.
