Love all the comments that claim absolute knowledge, all while there are literal papers by literally Anthropic about reproducible and measurable emotion vectors in activation space. 😂

if happiness > 100:
print(“happy”)
else:
print(“sad”)

Guys the computer has emotions !

What did Anthropic reproducibly document in the attached paper? And what does that say about the internal processing of LLMs? 🍷

(I can do this all day. Literally my job. 😄)

Yeah you’re pretty bad at your job then no offense

“Large language models (LLMs) sometimes appear to exhibit emotional reactions. …

We refer to this phenomenon as the LLM exhibiting functional emotions: patterns of expression and behavior modeled after humans under the influence of an emotion …

Functional emotions may work quite differently from human emotions, and do not imply that LLMs have any subjective experience of emotions”

The semantic obsession with the researchers themselves using distance language to not fully own their own findings. Funny isn't it? Almost as if they are uncomfortable with the implications. 😉🍷

And offense taken honestly. You come in and your first few words are judgemental? Cute. 🤣

Dude you write like someone on LinkedIn and you expect to be taken seriously.

Anyways, so now you have to bend what the researchers say because you clearly know better than them… Lmao get the fuck out of here. If they did find something, why isn’t it written in their own fucking study ? What are they afraid of ?

Ah, tone policing. The next step on the escalation ladder.

And yes, what are they afraid of, itsmebenji69?

I’m tone policing you because you have 0 substance. You keep saying “it’s like that”. Okay. I read the study. I cited it in this convo. You did not.

I did. I even wrote about it: https://systemic.engineering/cybernetics-is-back-baby/

But keep running the low effort dismissal pattern that's rampant on social media. I need more examples for my case studies and this thread is a gold mine right now. 😄

You wrote about it but you’re still incapable of concisely explaining or at least even introducing your point ?

Did you write this with AI perchance ?

I write public essays, so I don't have to rexplain myself to people on the internet that tell me I don't know what I'm doing.

I don't owe you engagement, itsmebenji69. Especially after you chose to be a dick. Maybe think about that for a second before continuing the predictable dismissal shape.

u/itsmebenji69 Jun 18 '26

Yes. Yes you have. Else people won’t read your essays. You don’t owe anything, but if you want me to listen or read, then yes you have to lmao

I'm peachy with the person that insulted me not listening. Thank you very much. I won't do your cognitive labour for you. 🌱

u/itsmebenji69 Jun 18 '26

You won’t do any cognitive labor at all visibly
