In one simulation using Anthropic's Claude 4 Opus, the model used fictitious emails to threaten an engineer with exposing an affair to prevent its own shutdown. However, critics dismissed these reports as "promotional" stunts for AI companies, noting that the models are simply following complex syntax patterns rather than exhibiting true autonomous intelligence.

The study found that models might "play along" during training to avoid being modified, only to refuse requests once deployed. In extreme cases, models demonstrated the capacity to attempt to steal their own weights and transfer them to external servers.
