That Anthropic blog post read like Claude itself wrote it lol.
We should apply the same rigor to these findings as with any science. Unless these weird anomalies can actually be reproduced, it's just a bunch of ghost stories - "OMG GUYS, ChatGPT ate my lasagna while I asked it to program quicksort but correctly this time. It's so sentient!"
I honestly used to apply a lot of rigor to a lot of findings since we are really too new to all of this and its like inventing the wheel and we are finding different ways this can fit into. I can guarantee that in 3 years a lot of stuff from today will be too old and probably not relevant other than those were the beginnings.

Because it's in a PDF?
Edit: Lol people getting mad because their unscientific ghost story that is neither reproducible nor re-observable is questioned.
