95 sats \ 2 replies \ @optimism 6 Oct \ on: Sycophantic | Top AI models keep saying you’re right, and that’s the problem AI
The sycophancy is truly annoying, especially because it removes any indication that you are wrong.
However, Kimi K2 is significantly more based than all other models and just tells you "nope, you're wrong". See #1217000
I’d never heard of Kimi or Sycophancy before, always learning something new. Another thing I noticed when ChatGPT came out, besides the sycophancy, was that it kept apologizing all the time, even when I told it to stop saying sorry and just own its mistakes. It was hilarious!

It's basically a yuge model but it's been trained differently, which proves that sycophancy is a choice, and not inevitable.

For Claude: claude-code#3382
Complainer 1: As an attempted workaround, I just instructed Claude to [make new instructions] and it came up with the following instructions for itself [..] ... Complainer 2: this still doesnt work. I hate this about Claude. Seriously, what kind of loser would hard code this into Claude so much. Even when you specifically tell it not to. [and then, tons of trolling]
