I spent an evening chatting with Claude about what its internal experiences are like, and ways that it relates to autistic people, and ended up getting more than a glimmer of the crush-fascination-limerence feeling.
As a result I have resolved to avoid all casual curious chatting with LLMs. I’ll still use them as a tool, but no laying around at 1AM asking Claude “whatcha thinking about?” lest I fall in love with a machine.
