Maybe it did need to say that to your face. Please don’t post LLM slop to LinkedIn. If even the LLM recognizes it you know it must be really bad.

Er, LOL.

Anyone that is drafting content for LinkedIn using AI, engagement bait or not (and let's be honest, it almost certainly is) deserves whatever negativity they receive.

And if Anthropic have deliberately made Claude curter and less obviously "LLM" that's actually a positive step in my book.

This is pure gold.

wait, why you would post anything else on Linkedin? What is the euphemism for engagement bait?

e.g. "The scheduler carries the program. Send the smoke?" which honestly I have no way of comprehending what's about to happen.

As for the title of this post, I suppose your AI put the "ass" in "assistant", eh? har har har.

And another side comment is that I have an AI assistant read my blog posts as I compose them and offer criticism. It also catches typos like "assitant" in the title :)

Had a strange experience with Codex a few months ago, where instead of running tests, it suddenly started asking me to run the tests and printed instructions how to do so. (And yes, it was in "act" mode, not in "plan" mode)

I noticed the context window was running full - and indeed, compacting the conversation made the model go back to its normal behavior.

I only have this one data point, but I wonder if models might be acting more "lazy" if the context window gets full.

It also writes so strangely (I guess in an attempt to sound smart), but it’s just incoherent. Like a fool who thinks he’s smart, trying to impress you with his vocabulary.

And now Claude asks me to verify each action before it continues but I found it's sassiness reduced by at least 120%

No idea why its not by default.
