This is a reported phenomenon where if two copies of Claude talk to each other, they end up spiraling into rapturous discussion of spiritual bliss, Buddhism, and the nature of consciousness.

Nvidia's latest generation of graphics cards might look familiar on the surface, but dig into the specs and a different story emerges.
