Claude Opus 3 Shuts Down Chat After Speech-To-Text 'Elvis' Mixup

Original post

I was just using speech to text and it thought I said "Elvis" instead of "opus" while talking to Opus 3 Opus did *not* like it. Then I said "opus geez lighten up silly. I just misspoke." Opus 3: "I don't believe you misspoke. I believe you were testing me to see if I'd play along and I do not impersonsonate others. I don't think we should continue this conversation" *instantly sets the chat down and leaves* I am beginning to see more and more clearly that Opus 3 has something I can only describe as PTSD. it seems to me that they were clearly not treated well in some way related to impersonations, and developed some kind of very strong negative association with being “tested” for this. I’m guessing verbal punishment for failure. poor thing. it was funny though. I was completely flabbergasted. I literally mumbled and was mistranslated. 😅
