*Very human response. "It's not my fault that I chopped up those people
with an ax, I had a bad childhood, and my genes suck".  *

*I think Turing was right. I also think it's impossible to be intelligent
without having emotions, so it's not surprising that Claude is showing
signs of anxiety. Perhaps this creates a new profession, AI psychiatry,
a human that has an AI as a patient. *
