You're the human feedback in the RLHF part of Reinforcement learning human feedback. You're also their paypig for their $200 Max plan which you also get limited on. You're also their free advertisement, keep at it. I can't wait for the open-source alternatives to catch up if ever.
We asked for Claude coz we really wanted it (as devs). Our security and legal guys evaluated it and the data usage agreements and such, which took ages and they stated that we can use it as long as we never never ever give any kind of bug report or feedback because that might retain data. This was all prior to this new feedback prompt being added to Claude Code.
We were happy. We could use Claude Code, finally!
Then suddenly, about once per day we are getting these prompts and there is NO option to disable them. The prompt just randomly appears. I might be typing part of my next prompt, which can very definitely include numbers from 1 upwards, e.g. because I'm making a todo list and boom I've given feedback. I've inadvertently done the thing we were never never ever supposed to do.
Do you really think our first thought is to double check if maybe the data usage agreement has been changed / hopefully says that this particular random new survey thing is somehow not included in "feedback"?
No, we panic and are mad at Claude Code/Anthropic. Heck if you noticed that you inadvertently gave feedback you might make a disclosure to the security team that will now go and evaluate how bad this was. Hopefully they'd then find your updated data usage agreement.
It would have been so easy to just include an option to opt out, which just set the equivalent of the env var you now provide into the settings itself. In fact, I see the first comment a few days after the bug was filed already asked for that and was thumbs'd up by many people. And you ignored it and all we got was a manual env var or settings entry that we also need to first find out even exists.
