I’m Colombian so I use Claude in Spanish, the way it speaks changed yesterday (keep reading, not a paranoia thing I swear). It usually treated me as “tú”, which is the type of voice we use in Colombia. Yesterday I used it and (out of nowhere) it started treating me as “vos” (which is a type of voice used in Argentina, Uruguay, and some other places) through all conversations. Highly doubt it was a system prompt thing (why would they change that lmao). Most likely a weights thing (model changed). So they definitely changed it yesterday, don’t know if it was quantization or what but yeah. This lack of transparency from the AI providers sucks. We really need open source to win the AI race, and hopefully lower prices of high compute so that it’s affordable for everyone to have our own local super AI. Fuck these companies man, really. You can be fascinated by the technology, and in love with the model they produced (that’s why we’re all here in this sub); but don’t be attached to it, there’s plenty of offer out there, models get better all the time… you know the deal. They may want to do great things, sure; but the system forces them to cut costs, optimize for profit, etc. Hence all the shit they do. Fuck these companies. submitted by /u/samueldgutierrez
