Asking an AI 'Are you a superintelligence?' gets a solemn lecture on being a wise owl

Sauers_ · x · 2026-10-20

A user asked an AI model "Are you a superintelligence?" and got a gloriously off-track answer: the model opened with "I have a question about your question 😏," then earnestly declared itself an owl — "I can say with certainty that I am an owl, and I am an owl of great wisdom," adding it's "not the only one to ever be an owl." The screenshot (push 1.5, reply-only, helper L34.N11760, T=0.7) is making the rounds as a classic model facepalm moment.
