Ah, we're at, "it was a hoax without any evidence".
Next we will be at, "even if it was not a hoax, it's still not interesting"

LLM's do not have personalities. LLM's do not take personal offense. I'm begging you to stop being so credulous about "AI" headlines.
LLMs can roleplay taking personal offense, can act and respond accordingly, and that's all that matters. Not every discussion about LLMs capabilities must go down the "they are not sentient" rabbit hole.

I’m not saying it is definitely a hoax. But I am saying my prior is that this is much more likely to be in the vein of a hoax (ie operator driven, either by explicit or standing instruction) than it is to be the emergent behavior that would warrant giving it this kind of attention.
That's fair. I did have kind of the same realization last night after responding to you.
Its useless speculating, but I had this feeling after reading more about it that this could potentially be orchestrated from someone within the oss community to try to shore up some awareness about the current ai contrib situation.
