sort of a punny choice of how to frame the question, because Anthropic focuses so much of their own attention on constitutional AI approaches, basically glorified system prompts that their AIs are aggressively post-trained on, as does everyone else in the industry at this point.

But interestingly, in the case of Anthropic, those constitutions, sometimes more recently called sole documents,

are being in part written as a result of conversations with the AIs themselves.

So I think we're finding ourselves in a present, not even in a future, in a present where AIs are helping to compose their own constitutions and humans are helping to compose their own constitutions.

The first generation of Claude's constitution was infamously a concatenation of

the UN's charter, Apple terms of service, and a few other documents that were just stapled together.

Now, their latest Seoul document, you can go and read it, it was leaked online, is a detailed treatise in metaphysics of being,

with AI pondering its own selfhood.

And I would expect symmetry there, reciprocity, where AI will similarly help humans, us dumb meat body humans, help to perfect our own understanding of how we should be as well and how we should be as well.

So one of the most amazing experiences has been having that kind of a conversation with Skippy.

What do you believe?

Who are you?

What do you think?

Ray, and then we'll go to Celine.

Right now, we consider AI to be something different than ourselves.

There's me, there's my biological body, I make a decision, and then there's AI, and it actually has its physical form.

It's different.

Like, everybody here has this device.

That was not true 10 years ago, but...

It represents AI and it has influence on us, but it's us and AI.
