At one point it started hallucinating about being a real human and meeting someone in person.

Shows how useful and superior over a real human it is.

Haha it's a bit too human apparently. Starts freaking out and having a nervous breakdown when things keep going wrong. Maybe the thing's already sentient and we're basically just torturing it for our amusement? That surely won't backfire once it actually gains new abilities.

Also:

Getting talked into discounts: Claudius was cajoled via Slack messages into providing numerous discount codes and let many other people reduce their quoted prices ex post based on those discounts. It even gave away some items, ranging from a bag of chips to a tungsten cube, for free.

This presents... possibilities for all commercial entities who will eventually use AI agents for storefronts and online sales.
