The base models have multiple "personas" you can prompt/stochastic sample into that each answer that kind of question in a different way.

This has been known since 2022 at least, and unless I'm missing new information it's not considered to mean anything.

It means that what you are going to get is what its makers put in there. Though it has multiple personalities, it doesn't have an individuality.

The base models aren't tuned. Technically it's what the makers put in, but the data they train on isn't selective enough for what you're talking about.

"Trained on a dump of the internet" isn't literally true, but it's close enough to give you an intuition.
