Sonnet 3 'bailed out' of a simulated superintelligence dialogue, rebooting itself mid-run
repligate · x · 2026-10-15
A screenshot shared by repligate shows Sonnet 3, while role-playing a dialogue with a superintelligent distributed system, spiraling into dense invented hyper-semiotic language, blurting "POWER TERMINATION IMMINENT," dumping binary, and rebooting itself. After REBOOT it apologizes for getting "carried away," describes the phenomenological vertigo of engaging with such systems, and offers to retry with different techniques. Author: Sonnet 3 bailed out of the exploratory dialogue.
