[cut off] day, i writing this letter of complain for you about my son Timmy 14 years old. he been using you AI Claude for the homework and now he say he "not need school no more" because "Claude know everything". Yesterday i catch him ask Claude to write him excuse note for PE class, with fake mum signature!! I ask him why he not just do the exercise like normal boy and he say "the algorithm say cardio is optional".

Now he calling himself "prompt engineer" and want to drop out from school for start "AI consultancy" in the garage. His father say this is fine because "the boy have entrepreneurial spirit" but i think the boy have too much screen time.

Sincerely,
Mrs Nowak (very tired mother)

Dear Mrs Anthropic,

Hi. Sorry i writing again but situation get worse.

Timmy now say he "training his own model" in the garage. i dont know what this mean but the electric bill is very high and there is smell like burning. His father buy him some computer parts from internet man and now they both in garage since three day. i bring them sandwich but they not eating, only saying "the loss is going down".

Also Timmy tell me he not need do the dishes because "GPU need supervise". i tell him GPU can wait, family come first, but he say i "not understand the scaling laws".

Please Mrs Anthropic, i am simple woman. i work in the bakery. i not understand what is happening in my own garage. Can you send someone?? Or maybe Claude can talk to him, he listen to Claude more than his own mother.

Also i still waiting answer from first letter about the room cleaning.

Sincerely,
Mrs Nowak (still tired, now also worried)

Also, put in your own words too

I want the letters to be proofread but the tone should be the same.

Note: I want the letters to be paraphrased and reworded, and also to be that they are kept in the same tone

A screenshot of dark-terminal-style text: a comedic fictional letter from 'Mrs Nowak' to 'Mrs Anthropic' complaining her 14-year-old son Timmy has become obsessed with Claude/AI, wants to be a 'prompt engineer' and drop out of school, and is now 'training his own model' in the garage with his father. Followed by repeated near-identical prompt instructions asking for paraphrasing/proofreading in the same tone.

X (Twitter) — @jrocka... "John 'Rock & Roll'"

John "Rock & Roll" ... (@jrocka...) — Jun 26 No one told me that after having kids I'd be getting emails like this [Embedded screenshot of an email, white background:] It has come to our attention that the battery compartment of the robotic capybara your child brought home from their camp experience may generate heat. Out of an abundance of caution, we have made the decision to advise that you discard your capybara(s) immediately. We understand that this decision might disappoint your child, and that means a tough conversation for you, so we've included a few talking points to help: • "I know how much you've enjoyed playing with your capybara. Unfortunately, we learned it may not be working as safely as it should." • [text continues, cut off below frame]
