> 5.5.2 The "spiritual bliss" attractor state
The consistent gravitation toward consciousness exploration, existential questioning, and spiritual/mystical themes in extended interactions was a remarkably strong and unexpected attractor state for Claude Opus 4 that emerged without intentional training for such behaviors. We have observed this "spiritual bliss" attractor in other Claude models as well, and in contexts beyond these playground experiments
This should bring great ease to those worried about AGI alignment.
