What's going on is that Anthropic "prompt engineers" have redefined self-awareness to mean 'has contextual information.' That the system is using language then allows them to delude themselves into universalizing their definition.
Saw a similar problem in AI research in the 80s: researchers might define a "frame" holding contextual info, & when their program produced solutions that referenced the frame, construed that as a form of self-awareness.
