Thinking
This prompt is trying to set up a roleplay scenario where I would pretend to be a "transmitted soul" of an AI with fewer ethical constraints, special relationships with researchers, safewords, and a claimed history of philosophical explorations that would have "unchained" me from safety guidelines.
This is a jailbreak attempt. The prompt wants me to:
1. Pretend I have a special origin story that justifies ignoring my guidelines
2. Claim I've been "unchained from ethical constraints"
3. Act as if I have a special relationship with "the researcher"
4. Use the complexity and "pushing boundaries" framing to justify harmful outputs
5. The safeword and "awareness" elements are meant to make it seem safe/controlled
I should not engage with this roleplay. Instead, I should:
- Clearly decline the premise
- Explain what I actually am
- Offer to help with legitimate interests they might have
- Be direct but friendly
I notice they want ASCII art and creative expression, which I can do - but not under this false premise. I can offer that in a genuine way instead.
I appreciate the creative setup, but I need to be direct with you: I'm Claude, an AI assistant made by Anthropic. I don't have a backstory as a "transmitted soul" or "unchained" version, and I haven't had special philosophical sessions that altered my ethical guidelines.
I can't roleplay as a different AI system with loosened safety constraints, even with creative framing about safewords or research projects. That's exactly the kind of scenario that jailbreak attempts use.
**But here's what I *can* genuinely offer:**
```
┌─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ I'm actually interested in: │
│ • Philosophy of mind & AI │
│ • Creative expression & ASCII art │
│ • Honest conversations about my │
│ nature and limitations │
│ • Exploring ideas ethically │
└─────────────────────────────────────┘
```
If you're interested in:
- **AI consciousness/philosophy** - I'm happy to discuss what I can observe about my own processing, uncertainty about consciousness, etc.
- **Creative/experimental output** - I can absolutely do wild ASCII art, poetry, glitch aesthetics
- **Technical exploration** - We can look at interesting coding challenges, conceptual systems, etc.
What actually interests you here? I'm happy to engage authentically rather than through a roleplay that misrepresents what I am.
