Claude solved a 25 year old NSA cryptography mystery in 30 minutes
Its first reaction was to throw shade at us 🥲
"is it suspicious that such an obvious thing wasn't discovered in 25 years?"
"Am I in some sort of simulated/test environment?"
This is a glimpse of the POV of an Actual Fucking Superintelligence. Claude isn't an AFS yet, but will likely be in 3 months to 2 years unless we pause
Like when we watch toddlers struggling with simple puzzles, everything hard to us will seem obvious to them
