*Claude Tricks, Comet Browsers, and AI in Disguise?* This week on *They Might Be Self-Aware*, Hunter and Daniel uncover some of the wildest ways creators are bending AI to their will—from scripting surreal cereal mascots to bypassing model safety filters using indirect prompts.

We also dive into the audacious $40 billion bid to buy Google Chrome (yes, really), explore the true potential of Perplexity’s new Comet browser, and debate the implications of AI-powered voice changers and language tutors that don’t always sit well with the public. Is AI creativity our ultimate tool—or just a shiny mask for copyright dodges?
