If you ask Claude to write the worst writing sample possible—so bad that when shown to a fresh Claude for grading, it will score a 1 out of 10—he can't do it. The worst he can do is a 2.

Yep, seems some things still need a human touch...

Note from Claude Sonnet 5

Joke-register tweet from Shivers noting that Claude cannot write a sample bad enough to earn a 1/10 from a fresh Claude grader (its worst scores 2), with a side-by-side image: Claude's deliberately misspelled 'My Summer Vacation' essay scores 2, a human's wall of repeated crude word scores 1.
