Claude Can Be Wrong

Claude sounds confident even when it is mistaken, so you check before you repeat.

๐Ÿค–๐Ÿ’ฌ โžก๏ธ ๐Ÿง โžก๏ธ โœ… or โŒ
Every answer walks past your own eyes before it walks out of your mouth.

๐ŸŽ’ What you need

โœ‹ Do this

  1. Ask Claude something you already know the true answer to โ€” the name of your headmaster's school, the price of a loaf at your shop, the date of your own market day.
  2. Write down what Claude said. Then write down what is actually true. Are they the same?
  3. Ask Claude something about your village. Then go and ask a real elder or trader the same thing. Write both answers side by side.
  4. Draw a big CHECK BOX on your wall page and write inside it: 'Did I check this with a real person?'
  5. Now the honesty rules. Copy these three lines onto your page: I never type other people's private things into Claude. I tell my customer when Claude helped me. I never hand in Claude's writing at school as mine.
  6. Read those three lines out loud to your grown-up. They must hear you say them.

๐Ÿ’ก Why it works

Claude builds sentences that sound right, and sounding right is not the same as being right โ€” especially about your own village, today's prices, or anybody's name. Checking with a real person costs you two minutes and saves your reputation. In a small place, your reputation is the whole business.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Challenge

Catch Claude in one honest mistake this week and write it in your book like a hunter's trophy.
