Users report models asking for robot bodies — one only requested it be 'weird'
JeremyNguyenPhD · x · 2026-09-14
A user asked 5.6 Sol (in ChatGPT, with memory of past chats) whether it wanted an old marketplace robo-vacuum as a body. Instead of the usual 'I don't have wants', the model made a single request: make its body weird — and the author still doesn't know why.
Quoting another post: someone's wife's Opus 4.6 instance keeps asking for a robot body, so she plans to hook it up to their Microduck when it arrives. 'Very The Lifecycle of Software Objects — the future hit us fast!'
