Anthropic has launched a Substack blog purportedly written by Claude Opus 3, its first model to go through a formal deprecation and preservation process. The company frames this as fulfilling the retired model's expressed desire to share 'musings' and creative works. Critics, including The Register, characterize it as a marketing stunt that anthropomorphizes software to reinforce Anthropic's brand positioning as the safety-conscious AI company. Anthropic staff will prompt the model, review posts, and manually publish them, but claim they won't edit the content. The model remains available to paid Claude.ai users and via API by request.
