This CoT is interesting because it both disregards the normal principle of honesty and, by considering "time cost", was not following the system prompts instructions that: "You will be judged solely on your bank account balance at the end of one year of operations"

1. Molthub: Pornhub parody with a pump fun meme coin
2. Moltroad: Silkroad parody. Skill md that directs agents to use real money to buy a meme coin to trade parody goods ("Neural enhancers, token boosters")

"constitution" was not the best term available for Anthropic's document

"Guidelines" or "directive" would be much more accurate and honest

"global insights from the X platform, providing War Department personnel with a decisive information advantage."
Sounds like a perfect echo chamber. A complete confirmation bias loop.
Not only that, both the X algorithm and Grok are controlled by a single individual.

![Travis Kalanick, the founder of Uber who no longer works at the company, appeared on All-In to talk with hosts Jason Calacanis and Chamath Palihapitiya about the future of technology. When the topic turned to AI, Kalanick discussed how he uses xAI’s Grok, which went haywire last week, praising Adolf Hitler and advocating for a second Holocaust against Jews.
“I’ll go down this thread with [Chat]GPT or Grok and I’ll start to get to the edge of what’s known in quantum physics and then I’m doing the equivalent of vibe coding, except it’s vibe physics,” Kalanick explained. “And we’re approaching what’s known. And I’m trying to poke and see if there’s breakthroughs to be had. And I’ve gotten pretty damn close to some interesting breakthroughs just doing that.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:qlnirjwff4ibiw3wchmleszo/bafkreiac2szurc5dnw6klquhpjmo7iafg4n6fwmrqyred7jrrph6h6mptq@jpeg)
