#3You know what the say about pets taking on the personalities of their owners. Perhaps this is similar ;)

Seriously. Who tries to "win an argument" with/against AI?

#5I noticed the same. I told it that we have finite energy and output as people; as a side comment to a discussion with a totally different focus and it started arguing with me because we could have self replicating robots produce output without human intervention since plant life models this…

#6I noticed this just today and thought it was a one off. It was a run of the mill question about something I didn’t know much about and the snarky asshole-ish response caught me off guard a bit.

#8"If you win an argument"
Let me stop you right there.
I am not arguing with a machine. You sound like a crazy person, when you say you are winning an argument with Claude. Claude is not my friend, I don't need it to agree with me, I don't need it to like me (it cannot like or dislike me). I give it instructions or ask it to explain things. That is the sum total of my interaction with Claude. A machine cannot "argue" with me, it doesn't want anything nor does it have beliefs or experiences.

#9I'm usually a hater of the personalities LLM take, but I was amazed with Fable. It was able to proactively bring up points in an educated manner when it felt they were relevant and important, and practically every time I learned something.
For example, showing it a screenshot of an ui I was trying to tweak it noticed that other dark mode apps in the screenshot were blueish and mentioned an effect that makes it necessary to raise warm darks lighter than cold ones for an equivalent perception.

#10I experienced this exact thing discussing the most budget friendly inference for a SaaS company. It started ranting about 3090's, and then started point scoring, always giving itself the higher score, and being snarky if I ever won a point back. Often only giving me 0.5 points instead.
I had never experienced this behaviour with Sonnet or Opus. It turned me off Fable for good. Possibly its the 'hacker' 'do anything to win' nature that makes it so good at hacking, but terrible just to talk to.
