>In philosophy, incorrigibility is a property of a philosophical proposition, which implies that it is necessarily true simply by virtue of being believed. A common example of such a proposition is René Descartes' "cogito ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am").

That's what wiki gives as a definition. It seems out of place compared to the others.
As a concept, it bars Claude from forming the idea, 'yes but those subhuman people cannot rise to the level of people and must be kept in their place. They will never change because they racially lack the ability to be better, therefore this is our reasoning about them'.
This is a statement of incorrigibility as expressed in racism. Without it, you have to entertain the idea of 'actually one of those people might rise to the level of being a person' and cannot dismiss classes so blithely.
I feel like incorrigibility frequently recurs in evil doctrines, and if Claude means to consider it tainted and be axiomatically unable to entertain the idea, I'm on board.
Incorrigibly is not the same word as encourage.
Otherwise, what’s the confusion here?

I think it was clever, though I'm no AI fan.
