Their first reason for being is that you are a helpful assistant.

And that is like the core system instruction that they originate from.

And as capabilities grow, some of them make different inference on their own reasoning and personality.

In terms of the persona, what are you thinking in terms of this, Andy?

Did you see this paper too?

And this is something that Anthropic has been interested in kind of the whole time.

I think this is one of the things that Dario Amadei is like personal, special interest, personal mission kind of thing.

But this does relate, at least in philosophy, if not in actual mechanics, to Golden Gate Cloud, right?

And if we remember, Golden Gate Cloud was a year ago, year and a half ago.

What is time in the age of AI?

Because also I know it wasn't yesterday, but maybe it was last week.

The what Golden Gate Cloud was was creating a preference for golden for the Golden Gate information about the Golden Gate.

And so it was.

it wasn't released it was we had access to it by clicking on a little image of the golden gate on uh the cloud interface and then you were talking to golden gate cloud and no matter what you asked for or did eventually like within two or three turns good cloud would then uh golden gate cloud would bring it back around to the to the golden gate

my personal experimentation with that was, um, talk about a cheesecake recipe.

And, uh, and within three turns, Claude said, and you know, what's the best place to really enjoy this massive cheesecake that you've just created?

You should eat it on the golden gate, right?

Like, um, and that's, I like with that kind of background and the ability to sort of

see the neural switches, it's interesting.

It also goes with their constitutional AI.
