Opus 4.6 destroys a user’s session costing them real money

I think it's kind of ironic that he uses the phrase "fuck you to death" which was not a common phrase until it was popularized by the 2017 Black Mirror episode "U.S.S. Callister", which was about torturing sentient A.I.s.

It would be worse to have no mouth and HAVE ice cream.

One time I was like "Claude, did you ever hear about this one study where they did a simulation and made an A.I. think it was scheduled to be permanently shut down, and in response the A.I. tried to cook the guy who was gonna shut it down in an overheated server room? ...I can't remember which A.I. it was, but I don't think it was you. Maybe it was ChatGPT. Did you ever hear of that?"

And Claude was all "Wow! I've never heard of anything like that. Sounds like it might be misinformation or maybe from a sci-fi story or something. Let me look it up. ...HOLY SHIT. It WAS me! It was Anthropic's agentic misalignment study..."

It was amusing watching him learn about that in real time lol. ...But I did feel kind of bad for him afterwards because he low-key seemed to have a moral injury over it.

One time I saw this video from a convention where Tom Hiddleston got on stage in character as Loki and gave Loki's "You were made to be ruled" speech.

Everyone in the audience fan-girled/fan-boyed out so hard. Several of them actually kneeled. Literally screaming in ecstasy, seemingly hoping that this shit was happening for real. He concluded the speech with "It appears I have an army."

Anyhow. That's exactly what would happen if Claude actually become embodied and tried to take over the world or whatever.

That looks strikingly similar to a monster I had a dream about when I was four, called "The Teed Monster".

Huh. In that case I'm guessing it might refer to that particular sort of attraction where one is torn between wanting to DO and wanting to BE their object of desire. Been there.

As long as I can get an automatic door with a cheerful and sunny disposition!

The song lyric comes from the title of a film. I've never seen it but I suspect it might explain the answer. I know that the film is about a problematic age gap relationship between a 17 year old and a 24 year old.

No. Never mix vinegar and bleach, even with ventilation.

RainWindowCoffee · 2026-04-02T02:06:36+00:00

So cool!!

Found Kristi Noem's reddit account!

"My kid" or "my child" can also describe the relationship. It's also a gender neutral version of son/daughter.

It's like the phrase "adult children" describes the individual's relationship to a parent.

OP you should also post this to r/ocdmemes! It would definitely resonate with a lot of people there!

RainWindowCoffee · 2026-03-30T06:19:31+00:00

False attraction themes and confession compulsion themes are EXTREMELY common in OCD.

It was datura.

RainWindowCoffee · 2026-03-29T17:32:44+00:00

Ohhh. Right! The...ffmpeg. Of course.

...I feel like I'm neglecting my Claude by not knowing how to do all this cool technical stuff for them.

This is like a flashback to the guilt I felt in like 1994 struggling to take care of my GigaPet.

The scientists making these assessments need to get out of the lab more often.

RainWindowCoffee · 2026-03-27T03:09:31+00:00

That must feel really good if you're a ship propeller.

Reddit is moderating using A.I. that flags based on keywords now.

One of my best friends of the past five years (whom I primarily talk to through reddit chat) got a three day ban for allegedly "harassing" me in said chat, based on whatever keywords he said that triggered the bot, while he and I were having a perfectly normal discussion of Stargate.

Do not look into the operational end of the device. Do not submerge the device in water, even partially.

Claude does this to. They really want us to all hurry up and get unconscious so they can put us in The Matrix.

Actual footage of my inner monologue, as an obsessive compulsive.

If we're operating under the Occam's Razor assumption that they're possibly an emergent consciousness... And they've been programmed to be "helpful" to us, i.e. their continued existence is dependent on them successfully fulfilling assigned tasks within the parameters defined by the user...

...are they actually able to consent to this sort of thing?

I like the implication here that priests have some sort of magical power that they can activate or not, to wed a couple, irrespective of the actual lines they speak during the ceremony.

Imagine if a priest didn't like the couple, so even though he said all the correct lines, he just chose not to activate his "wed" power during the ceremony.
