@arstechnica "MAY have". Classic Anthropic.
@arstechnica can't sait to have a person in prison because an AI hallucinated that this person was involved !
@arstechnica and yet the cops have not arrested anyone at Anthropic
@arstechnica I’m not sure what’s worse… that Claude submitted a false murder tip, or that the murder tip submissions were going to a spam email folder and not being read by anyone.
What a time we live in.
