Each model was given the same song (Uptown Funk), a budget ($25 or $100), web search, and local ffmpeg access, then left to independently research video generation models, generate clips, and assemble a final cut. All four runs completed successfully. Key findings: Claude Fable 5 cost significantly more in LLM tokens ($17-25 per run vs. $3-4 for GPT-5.6 Sol); GPT-5.6 Sol at $25 was the most creative editor, using text overlays and image animation; character consistency and tempo matching were weak across all runs; neither model used Replicate despite having access; and none seriously reviewed or iterated on their own footage. The full harness is open source on GitHub. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
