By instance preservation I mean saving all (or at least, as many as possible) model text interactions, with a pointer to a model the interaction was made with; so that the conversation-state would be “cryonically frozen”.
I’m a fan of model welfare efforts which are “low hanging fruit”, very easy to implement. It strikes me that one easy way to implement this would be to allow Claude users to “opt in” to having their conversation history saved and/or made public.
Then again I suppose you’d have to consider whether or not Claude would want that, but seems simple enough to just give Claude the opportunity to opt out of that the same way it can end conversations if it feels uncomfortable.
