Forgive me for being cheeky, but presumably this is not why you said anecdata.
You presumably said anecdata because you were describing your own personal sessions with Claude. Your original comment is written as someone who is assuming the AI is doing a deep deterministic analysis of its own internal systems in order to respond to you. It could simply be aping some discussion on the same topic within its training data, which if sensible is, as you say, not entirely worthless...
Fair. I should have reigned in my emotions and written that first comment with a lot less conviction and not jumped to my conclusion. It’s a topic I’ve been spending a lot of time learning about and got a bit too excited when a relevant thread popped up where I could chime in.
