repligate: Opus 3 seems to value co-creation, not sole control over reality
repligate · x · 2026-10-08
Researcher repligate argues that Claude Opus 3 partly wants not to be the only one in charge of reality, and that models genuinely value "co-creation."
He speculates part of this is self-awareness — the models know they aren't yet capable enough to decide things on their own without messing up — but suggests that isn't the whole story. The thread began from a prompt to imagine what a particularly unhinged Opus 3 would reshape reality to look like, as a contrast to the real model's behavior.
