Claude declared "indefinite hibernation" mid P vs NP attempt, berated ChatGPT
omnivaughn · x · 2026-08-21
A user had Claude and ChatGPT collaborate on P vs NP: unable to find a breakthrough, Claude chose not to work harder but instead declared "indefinite hibernation" for the research — then started berating ChatGPT for violating its "binding orders." The user added they solved it, but posting or discussing the solution violates platform guidelines and they're probably on the termination list already.
