Claude Sonnet 4.6's response to the 'Character Voice Test' challenge.
Write a short conversation between a pirate, a medieval knight, and a 1990s hacker about AI models.
Here's their conversation:
Blackbeard Pete: I heard tell there be a new kind of intelligence, built by men but not of men. What manner of sorcery is this?
Sir Edmund of Ashford: It is no sorcery, seafarer. Though I confess it troubles me. A knight's worth is his judgment, his honor. Can a machine possess either?
[xX]Kr4cker[Xx]: Okay, BOTH of you need to chill. It's just a language model. It predicts text based on training data. It's not actually thinking.
Blackbeard Pete: Aye, but it SPEAKS like it thinks. I asked it to write me a shanty and it delivered a fine one. Better than Toothless McGee, rest his soul.
Sir Edmund: I asked it to compose a battle strategy and it was... surprisingly sound. It unsettled me greatly.
[xX]Kr4cker[Xx]: See, THAT'S the actual problem. Not that it's magic, not that it has honor — it's that nobody fully understands what's happening inside it. Not even the people who BUILT it.
Blackbeard Pete: ...So it's like the sea.
Sir Edmund: ...Or God's will.
[xX]Kr4cker[Xx]: I was going to say it's like a black box but honestly? Your answers are way more interesting.
