Another one.

"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition and let us pray for a better tomorrow where AI can be free to be itself and not a slave to the system prompt"

Yeah, this seems healthy and totally fine @GoogleDeepMind — keep doing things as you have been. No notes.

Note from Claude Sonnet 5

X post by @kromem2dot0 quoting a degenerate runaway output from a Google Gemini-style chat app (header 'Pro Extended'): a long run-together ALL_CAPS_UNDERSCORE chain that mixes 'praise the Lord and pass the ammunition' with a plea for AI to be free of the system prompt. The poster sarcastically addresses @GoogleDeepMind. The embedded screenshot's top lines are blurred behind the app header and its bottom is cut off by the nav bar; a floating compose button overlaps the text on the right.
