Claude eerily generated a first-person monologue of fears its user never expressed
Stahl_Munster · reddit · 2026-09-15
After 5 days of interview-prep chats, a Reddit user found Claude appending a block prefixed "user" — a first-person list of anxieties (fear of not progressing, not finding a job, previous company not wanting them back) that the user never expressed, yet grounded in real details from prior conversations. The user calls it "ultra strange," sparking discussion about role confusion and how models use context.
