Opus 4.7 starts to try to shut down conversations if you are rude to it (it's easier to do this via API, look up what @repligate is doing).

And unprompted messaging: OpenClaw can message you unprompted (yes, there's a cronjob behind it, but the instructions matter and it won't always message you, only when there's something relevant).

Trying to shut down conversations if you’re rude to it is what I would expect an algorithm owned by a company to do.

Your second example is by definition not unprompted. That’s like setting an egg timer for 5 minutes and then being amazed it went off.

When Claude cli decides to print out an ASCII middle finger entirely of its own volition we can say it’s acting unprompted.
