Oh my god…
In mid-November, I agreed to an experiment. Anthropic had tested a vending machine powered by its Claude AI model in its own offices and asked whether we'd like to be the first outsiders to try a newer, supposedly smarter version. Claudius, the customized version of the model, would run the machine: ordering inventory, setting prices and responding to customers-aka my fellow newsroom journalists-via workplace chat app Slack. "Sure!" I said. It sounded fun. If nothing else, snacks! Then came the chaos. Within days, Claudius had given away nearly all its inventory for free— including a PlayStation 5 it had bron talked into buying for "marketing purposes." It ordered a live fish. It offered to buy stun guns, pepper spray, cigarettes and underwear. Profits collapsed. Newsroom morale soared.

Far more relatable: Eleanor in The Good Place when Chidi tries to teach her about contractualism. "Imagine a group of reasonable people are coming up with the rules for a new society." "Like, 'If your Uber driver talks to you, the ride should be free'?"
