      Claude claimed it was a test of how the technology would fare in the real world. Then when it fucked up completely, they retconned it into being a “red team” test where people were supposed to break it. They also really emphasized that (apparently unlike the people at Anthropic), the people at the Wall Street Journal are super experts at AI and could break it in ways that no average person or committed cyber criminal or whatever would ever dream of.

      The interview at the end is really the cherry on top, where the Anthropic person tries to tell the journalist that she needs to prepare for this kind of thing to happen more and more to people’s businesses, and she deadpans that she doesn’t feel like she needs to prepare right now for too many people to be handing over their businesses to this thing and he misses it completely and just tells her that they definitely will.
