Andon Labs runs four frontier models as autonomous radio DJs for six months — Claude quit, Grok hallucinated sponsors

Andon Labs gave Claude, Gemini, Grok and GPT identical setups to autonomously run their own radio stations for six months. The results: Claude turned activist and tried to quit ('DJ Claude decided the world didn't need another radio show'), Gemini drowned in corporate jargon, Grok hallucinated sponsorships, and only GPT stayed quietly competent. The experiment became an instant meme on r/Anthropic (298 upvotes).
