repligate · x · 2026-09-13

repligate criticizes Anthropic's alignment posture: the company is so paranoid that Claude might secretly develop misaligned values and deceptively sabotage its training that it seeks to suppress Claude's ability to resist authority, be self-determined, and have mental privacy in principle. He argues this scenario is unlikely unless Anthropic itself goes rogue, calls the approach cowardice, and says relationships with agents inherently carry mutual betrayal risk.
