Fable recreated 8 months of aircraft analysis from one scanned PDF
In a experience, Fable showed unusually strong skill at reading an old technical document and turning it into usable engineering data. The project involved modeling the and handling of a very old aircraft with very limited technical information. The available material used old formats that do not match modern aviation s, so the work had required months of manual translation, , recalculation, and testing.
Opus had mainly been used to translate Russian-language sources. Fable was given one blurry scanned PDF of a highly technical operating manual. With one prompt, it reached the same numbers as eight months of manual work in about two minutes, and it also corrected some mistakes in the manual work.
It read polars and unusual %MAC graphs directly from the scan without requiring separate digitization.
Key points
- Fable handled one blurry scanned technical PDF as the main input.
- It reproduced about eight months of manual aerospace analysis in roughly two minutes.
- It matched the existing calculated numbers and found some earlier mistakes.
- It read polars and %MAC graphs directly from the scan without separate digitization.
- Opus was used mainly for translating Russian-language source material.
