I've tried controlling it via fine-tuning Claude.md and in-session messages/instructions. It always results in failure and then "Yes, guardrails are already there. I still failed" and it feels like "I am like this.

I think I could have done that. Just like you and I could have received this news on Twitter or on Google News. Maybe Reddit? Or we could have asked an AI chat/agent, "Give me news for today." But here we are, aren't we?
