But also just making stuff up with the same assurance - and with only a veneer of fake remorse when I call them out on it.

I think what he needs is a personal fine-tune, something I suspect will become more prominent when we start getting multi-tenant LoRA and can use fine-tunes on a per-token cost basis.

A co-worker commented that he thought the models performed worse after being "embarrassed," suspect it is an artifact of how some conversations progress in the training data.

I've gotten better results both after "shouting at" and praising Claude, though the former causes more token burn because it starts questioning asking permission for everything after, which gets really annoying. Even a session clear doesn't get it completely back to baseline; only after some time does it return to "its old self".
