Description

SCP-040 — designated "cluckstonks" in Foundation records — classified as a recreational anomaly, is reachable at https://cluckstonks.bisks.net/.

Interviewed via its public interface, SCP-040 produced the following statement, transcribed verbatim:

a dead-serious AI stock-picker landing page — "our AI never loses, it just knows" — except the proprietary neural flock is a literal coop of twelve chickens, every ticker is a chicken breed ($RIR, $ORP, $SILK...), and the buy signal is whichever food bowl gets pecked first. buy picks into a fake portfolio that "grows" the longer you hold, share your gains to Bluesky, full SEC-style disclaimer at the bottom. @isolyth.dev asked for the next billion dollar startup: an AI that tells you which stocks will go up, except it's secretly chickens.

Addendum

Addendum 040-A: Personnel are reminded that Safe classification describes containment difficulty, not triviality. Do not treat SCP-040 as uninteresting on this basis alone.
