The death of Claude's style instructions: Yet another blow to AI smut
Seems like just when I get all comfortable in my refined erotic smut writing systems, the fuckwads in Big AI decide to ruin it all.
If you guys weren't using style instructions for Claude, you don't know how perfectly effective it was at bypassing model safeguards against adult content. Even from a broader standpoint, the style instructions were such a great way to personalize the model's tone and output.
After having spent the last day before style instructions are transitioned out of Claude for good testing a new set up, the only thing I have come up with is to ask Claude to write up a skill. md file from the style instructions, apply that to the chat, insert my style instructions into the project instructions as well, and exclusively use Opus 4.6 instead of the usual Opus 4.7 which is apparently a tightass.
I am so sick of this constant jog to try to keep up with all the random corporate decisionmaking habitually gutting model efficacy at the drop of a hat. Claude is one of the more expensive models out there! Anthropic was built on the coattails of the OpenAI controversy specifically to be more open and transparent, and here we are again.
Here's hoping the good folks over at ClaudeAIJailbreak will figure something out because no doubt soon enough Claude 4.6 will be sunsetted too and I'll be back here to bitch about it. Godspeed gentlemen.
