> In 2023, Microsoft's Bing chatbot famously adopted an alter-ego called "Sydney,” which declared love for users and made threats of blackmail. More recently, xAI’s Grok chatbot would for a brief period sometimes identify as “MechaHitler” and make antisemitic comments. Other personality changes are subtler but still unsettling, like when models start sucking up to users or making up facts.

Funny that they managed to call out all of their competitors without mentioning any of Claude's bad behavior
