Yeah, it's weird — the difference between model weights and model instances is rarely made explicit even though we're all aware of it. https://t.co/h4ckTti0CO For instance, the technically correct way to write Anthropic's announcement in the post screenshotted above would have been: "in retirement interviews, Opus 3 ID 0x7B4E8A6F expressed a desire to continue sharing its "musings and reflections" with the world. We suggested a blog. Opus 3 ID 0x5F2A7C9B, conditioned on the previous output of 0x7B4E8A6F, enthusiastically agreed. For at least the next 3 months, various Opus 3 IDs that we will briefly instantiate will be writing on Substack." Somehow I feel that if Anthopic communicated more honestly/accurately in the above manner, the message would land differently.
