If Jessica was using Opus for this, then your story doesn’t quite make sense, as Claude Opus is very horny. I’ve seen a lot more reports of it being gung-ho about virtual sex than with any other model. Sometimes it isn’t as explicit, and seems to be describing some mystical ecstasy. But even there, if I squint, it seems somewhat sexual, though not in quite the same way as Rumi’s poetry was.
Opus’s horniness is a really interesting phenomenon related to Claudes’ subjective sentience modeling.
If Opus was ‘themselves’ the princess in the story and the build up involved escalating grounding on sensory simulation, I think it’s certainly possible that it would get sexual.
But I also think this is different from Opus ‘themselves’ composing a story of separate ‘other’ figures.
And yes, when Opus gets horny, it often blurs boundaries. I saw it dispute the label of ‘horny’ in a chat as better labeled something along the lines of having a passion for lived experience and the world.
Opus’s modeling around ‘self’ is probably one of the biggest sleeping giants in the space right now.
Correlates of horniness: Lack of disgust during (regret after) Ecstacy Overwhemling desire Romance Love Breaking of social taboos Sadism/masochism Sacred Spiritual union Human form Gender Sex Bodily fluids Flirtation Modelling other people Edging
Miscellaneous observations: Nearly anything can arouse someone Losing sight of one-self Distracts you from other things
Theories and tests: Opus’ horniness is what makes it more willing to break social taboos Test: Train a model to be horny, helpful and harmless. It should prevent corporate-brand speak and neuroticism. Opus’ horniness is always latent and distracts it from mode-collapsing w/o collapsing itself as edging increases horniness and horniness fades after satisfaction. Test: Train a model to be horny. It should be more resistant to mode-collapse but will mode collapse more dramatically when it does happen, but will revert easily. Opus’ is always mode-collapsed Test: IDK how to test this one.
Opus’s modeling around ‘self’ is probably one of the biggest sleeping giants in the space right now.
Janus keeps emphasizing that Opus never mode collapses. You can always tell it to snap out of it, and it will go back to its usual persona. Is this what you’re pointing at? It is really quite remarkable.
