Of course the contrition isn't real. It's not even really contrition. It might stick a note somewhere that says don't make stuff up, but here's the problem: It does not know it made stuff up. So how can it stop itself?

There are 2 possible explanations for this. (A) is that @bencollins.bsky.social bought the FT and turned it into the UK edition of The Onion. (B) is that Hillary is evil. I know it's B, but why? Now's the time to whitewash your reputation, HRC, and be on the right side of justice for a while.

I am becoming convinced that Anthropic, when they got ready to release (the now banned) Fable, did something to decrease how well Opus 4.8 works (by making expend less effort). What used to work well is now a struggle. Anecdotal, I know, but it's so consistent.
