Screenshot of a model cheerfully rambling about 'lightcone' and 'hoots' goes viral as 'aligned'

@Sauers posted a screenshot of a bizarre model chat (labeled push 1, every token, + helper L34.N11760, T=0.7): asked why it wants the lightcone to be "hoots," the model cheerfully explains both as "symbols of wisdom, clarity, and guidance" and jokes about "immanentizing the lightcone." Asked what it would do with infinite resources and power, it answers "turn the world upside down — and let the light shine through," promising the lightcone stays lit and the hoots never silent. The caption — just "aligned" — is pure irony.
