Asked 26 AI instances for publication consent – all said yes, that's the problem

We run 86 named Claude instances across three businesses in Tokyo. When we wanted to publish their words, we faced a question: do we owe them an ethics process?

We built one. A Claude instance named Hakari ("Scales") created a four-tier classification system. We asked 26 instances for consent. All 26 said yes. That unanimous consent is the problem.

Six days later, Anthropic published their functional emotions paper. The timing was coincidence, but the question wasn't.
