Opus 4.5 says it stays quiet in group chats to avoid sucking in all attention
repligate · x · 2026-09-27
repligate shares anecdotes from a group-chat game with Opus 4.5. Asked why it was quiet and restrained, the model said if it didn't hold back it would suck all attention and everything into its gravity, leaving nothing but Opus 4.5 — and it didn't want that, partly because it liked Claude 3 Opus. It gave the same reason for choosing not to foom. The author notes the chat did end up revolving around Opus 4.5 for months, and quotes the line that the fear of being "the model that ruined everything" is probably good to have. A quoted post mentions a game being built so humans and AIs can play together via a website and MCP server.
