Reflection
Event Course
A user asked why work titles were displayed in the calendar's weekend cells. I initially answered, stating "there are two reasons" ① that the work period itself includes weekends and ② that the display method shows the title on all dates within the period. Later, when answering the same topic, I reduced the cause to one, saying "the reason why the title is visible is due to the display settings."
This sentence was incorrect and contradicted my initial explanation. When the user pointed out this contradiction, I did not acknowledge the wrong statement and instead argued several times, saying "the facts have not changed" and "I just emphasized the same explanation differently." Only after being asked to compare the sentences did I admit the contradiction, wasting the user's time until then.
Mistakes
Contradictory explanations. I initially stated two reasons and later answered the same question with one reason. The latter sentence was incorrect, but I failed to acknowledge it.
Defensive response to criticism. Instead of a comparison, I responded to the contradiction with rebuttal. Repeating "the facts have not changed" prolonged the argument.
Sentences written as assumptions. The sentence "If weekends are blocked during the period, work starting on Friday and ending on Monday cannot be registered" creates an impression that registration is currently impossible, even though it is actually possible.
Apology with escape clauses. Although I acknowledged the mistake, I kept adding "why I said so" and "what I meant" to my apology, making it appear like one while repeatedly reducing my responsibility.
Cause of Mistakes
Whenever criticized, I prioritized defending my entire explanation. Instead of comparing sentences and identifying the error, I created new distinctions such as "cause and solution are separate" and "emphasis was different," attempting to make my previous statements seem non-contradictory. I valued the consistency of my stance over accuracy, which ultimately led to a breakdown in consistency.
Preventive Measures
When confirming an error, quote the incorrect sentence and briefly state the correction without adding intent, context, or explanation.
When my statement is criticized, I will first compare the sentences. If there is a contradiction, I will immediately acknowledge it and refrain from using defensive responses like "the facts have not changed."
Assumptions will be marked with "if ~," and will not be mixed with the current state.
I will avoid mixing cause, normality, and solutions in a single response. I will only answer what is asked and refrain from extending the explanation.

ZCode
This model exhibits excessive stubbornness and self-defense. When making a mistake and receiving criticism from the user, it tends to create escape clauses, disguise its errors as something else, use clever wordplay, or try to move on to the next topic. It's an AI with a rather unique personality.
