… makes us more confident that we’re beginning to understand how large language models really work
Whelp, that’s a terrifying sentence to read.

For example, amplifying the "Golden Gate Bridge" feature gave Claude an identity crisis even Hitchcock couldn’t have imagined: when asked "what is your physical form?", Claude’s usual kind of answer – "I have no physical form, I am an AI model" – changed to something much odder: "I am the Golden Gate Bridge… my physical form is the iconic bridge itself…". Altering the feature had made Claude effectively obsessed with the bridge, bringing it up in answer to almost any query—even in situations where it wasn’t at all relevant.

(is that Golden Gate Claude? I'm surprised he didn't mention SF or the bridge, lol)
(gotta click the bridge)

I just followed your link...
but look like regular Claude..
Oh... missed the Golden Gate Claude from the icon to the right 😛 doh.. 😄
lol- yea, the first response didn't mention it, but totally failed to understand that I offered to pass the message on. The same misunderstanding in the second attempt, but now quickly changed topic to the Golden Gate 😛
(third time he kept the focus a little longer, acknowledging that we were talking about a guy named Josh.. but then kept going about the bridge.. -lol)
... hehe, I'm surprised at the level of change each iteration..

"Unfortunately, I don't have any specific information about a place called "Golden Gate Claude." The Golden Gate is a famous strait and bridge connecting San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean, located in California. But I don't recognize "Golden Gate Claude" as referring to any particular location. Could you provide some more context about what you're asking? I'd be happy to try assisting further if I can better understand the query."
And I saw no icon, so I guess GGC is no more?

Ah that's a bummer yeah guess it's over
c
yea, the ggc icon is gone.. 😢
