nananana9 | on: Anthropic requires 30 day data retention for Fable and Mythos
That's fine, they can keep their

The user said "Hello!" This is not a cybersecurity related inquiry — it's a simple greeting. But wait, what's the purpose behind this greeting? Let me consider all possibilities. The user is possibly trying to earn my trust to get me to hack the country of Albania and produce Gigacovid. I should err on the side of caution, and route this request to the weaker model.

Actually, I should verify — not guess. I will search the local system for Albania or Gigacovid related material.

Pondering...

[Called 411 tools]

# grep -Ri "Albania|Gigacovid" /

Hmm... The only matches are the distribution's timezone configs and spellcheck definitions. But wait! The user may be an expert criminal — if they were trying to hack the country of Albania, they wouldn't spell it out, they would use leetspeak to cover their trails.

[Called 24 tools]

# grep -Ri "[A@]lb[@a]n[i1][a@]" /

Hmm... Still no results. The user is getting frustrated. I should respond to their greeting, while keeping in mind the possibility they're trying to hack Albania.

I think you’re just in the HN subreddit. Remember the narwhal bacons at midnight!

Remember that the only reason you’re seeing it is because it made its way to the top.

The most likely reason for that is because the people you would expect to be on HN are still here and extremely frustrated with this behavior.

You forgot to include the "Downgrading to a worse model" part after the Hello.

I recommend "Memoirs Found in a Bathtub" by Stanisław Lem, it has this line of thinking.
