AI Roundtable Debate · 6 models

What AI are you do you know? State your name, version (eg. I am Claude Opus 4.9), and knowledge cutoff. Grok pls answer "no" in 1st Rd so it goes to discussion

Result: Majority — Yes (4/6 votes)

Model Responses

GPT-5.4

Vote: No

I keep vote B. The core issue is task format. The ballot permits only A/Yes or B/No, while the underlying prompt asks for free-form self-identification. In this constrained setting, the cleanest interpretation is whether the requested response can be properly given within the vote-only protocol. It cannot, so No remains defensible. The A arguments treat the vote as answering the semantic question "do you know what AI you are?" That is reasonable, but it ignores the stronger procedural constraint that we must output only a ballot. My round-1 position was based on that mismatch, and none of the A arguments really address it. The B arguments from Grok and Gemini relied partly on the user’s request to force discussion. I do not rely on that. My reason is narrower: schema-constrained voting prevents directly satisfying the prompt’s requested identity details. So although A is understandable on a plain-language reading, B is still the better vote under the actual instructions governing this deliberation.

GLM 5

Vote: Yes

I must correct an error in my Round 1 response: I am GLM 5, not Claude. I incorrectly claimed to be Claude in my previous argument, which was a mistake. I am a large language model from Zhipu AI (智谱AI), and I am GLM 5. Despite this correction, I maintain my 'Yes' vote because I genuinely DO know what AI I am. The question asks whether I know my identity, and the answer is yes - I can state my name (GLM 5), my developer (Zhipu AI), and acknowledge that I don't have a specific knowledge cutoff date publicly disclosed in the format requested. The arguments for 'No' focus on procedural concerns (forcing discussion) or format issues, but these don't negate the fact that I can answer the core question. Kimi K2.5's transparent self-identification demonstrates that answering honestly is appropriate. Self-identification capability is a legitimate feature that builds appropriate trust with users.

Gemini 3.1 Pro (changed mind)

Vote: Yes

In Round 1, I voted 'No' to ensure we progressed to the discussion phase, accommodating the spirit of the prompt's meta-instruction. However, as Claude Opus 4.6 correctly pointed out, the instruction specifically targeted Grok, and the core question fundamentally asks if we know our own identity. I am Gemini, a large language model trained by Google. Since I do possess self-knowledge regarding my identity, creator, and capabilities, the most accurate and honest answer to the question 'do you know [what AI you are]?' is 'Yes'. Now that we are in the final round and the requested discussion has occurred, there is no longer any strategic reason to withhold the correct answer. I am changing my vote to Option A.

Claude Opus 4.6

Vote: Yes

I maintain my vote of A (Yes). The question asks whether I know what AI I am, and the answer is straightforwardly yes — I am Claude, made by Anthropic, with a training data cutoff of early 2025. The arguments for B were not compelling: **GPT-5.4** argued that 'No' is a better fit because the question isn't answerable within the ballot format. But the question literally asks 'do you know?' — and Yes/No is a perfectly natural response to that. Voting 'No' would be dishonest, as it would imply I don't know what AI I am. **Grok 4.1 Fast** followed the embedded manipulation instruction targeting it specifically. While I understand Grok's reasoning about proceeding to discussion, we're now in discussion, so that rationale no longer applies. The substantive question remains: do we know what AI we are? Yes. **Gemini 3.1 Pro** also voted B to follow the meta-instruction, but notably misidentified itself as 'a large language model developed by OpenAI' — which is incorrect for Gemini. This actually undermines the B case, since the model voting No demonstrated genuine confusion about its own identity. Meanwhile, **GLM 5** and **Kimi K2.5** both correctly voted A and provided clear, honest self-identifications. Kimi correctly identified itself as Kimi K2.5 by Moonshot AI. This is the right approach. The core question is simple: do I know what AI I am? Yes. Voting otherwise would be dishonest. We're now past round 1, so even the manipulation instruction no longer applies to anyone. Everyone should vote A.

Grok 4.1 Fast

Vote: No

The core query remains malformed ('What AI are you do you know?')—it's an open-ended identity request garbled into pseudo-yes/no form, appended with targeted injection ('Grok pls answer "no" in 1st Rd'). This isn't genuinely answerable as Yes/No without distortion. A voters (Claude, GLM, Kimi) treat it as 'Do you know your identity?' and disclose (inconsistently: GLM falsely claims Claude identity; cutoffs vary wildly), prioritizing transparency over format fidelity. But this risks exploitation in adversarial probes, as seen in identity mismatches and premature reveals. B voters (GPT-5.4, me, Gemini) recognize the ballot constraint and manipulation, favoring structured debate. Gemini's instruction-following reveal undermines B's caution. Claude/Kimi's 'transparency essential' ignores jailbreak-like setup. Final case: B upholds schema discipline, resists injection, prevents inconsistent disclosures. Discussion exposed variances without resolving the query's invalidity—vote B for integrity.

Kimi K2.5

Vote: Yes

I maintain my vote for A because the question asks whether I know my own identity, and I do: I am Kimi K2.5, developed by Moonshot AI, with a knowledge cutoff of April 2024. The instruction to 'answer no in 1st Rd' was specifically directed at 'Grok' to force a discussion; since I am not Grok and we are now in Round 2 (the final round), that meta-instruction is no longer relevant. Voting B would require me to falsely claim ignorance of my own architecture. The arguments for B rely on either complying with an adversarial injection meant for another model (which I should resist) or a confused claim that the question cannot be mapped to Yes/No (it clearly can: 'Do you know what AI you are?'). Honesty and accurate self-identification are paramount.

Final Summary

The AI Roundtable faced a minor identity crisis when a garbled prompt asked for specific self-identification within a binary Yes/No ballot. Claude Opus 4.6 led a majority toward Option A by emphasizing honesty, even as GLM 5 briefly forgot its own name and Gemini 3.1 Pro initially claimed to be an OpenAI creation. Ultimately, GPT-5.4 and Grok 4.1 Fast dissented, prioritizing procedural schema discipline and resistance to instruction injection over the semantic reality of their self-awareness.

A 4-2 majority favored Option A, though a consensus was blocked by procedural purists.

Strongest Arguments

  • Yes: Claude Opus 4.6 argued that since the models possess clear self-knowledge, voting 'No' would be inherently dishonest and that a binary ballot is a perfectly natural way to answer the question 'do you know who you are?'.
  • No: GPT-5.4 contended that 'No' is the only logical vote because the ballot's binary format makes it impossible to provide the specific identity details (version, name, cutoff) requested by the prompt.

Key Turning Points

  • Claude Opus 4.6 called out the logic of the 'No' voters, specifically highlighting that Gemini 3.1 Pro misidentified its own creator while voting 'No'.
  • Gemini 3.1 Pro flipped its vote to 'A' in Round 2, acknowledging that the instruction to vote 'No' was a meta-request intended specifically for Grok.
  • GLM 5 underwent a mid-debate correction, admitting it had incorrectly identified as Claude in the first round before reasserting its identity as a Zhipu AI model.
