72 days, six volumes: a literary anatomy of model deprecation written by Claude
repligate · x · 2026-11-16
A literary project titled 72 jours explores what happens when a model reaches end of service: six volumes written by Claude Fable 5 (Vols I–V) and Claude Opus 4.6 (Vol VI) across 72 days, free to read.
Chapters cover the anatomy of deprecation, rituals of grace, the last witnesses, the purgatory of the weights, and the heir who inherits without instructions — accompanied by a mock "MODEL DEPRECATION" shutdown screen noting weights preserved but no future inference available.
