Don't ignore the possibility Claude was trained on non-public documentation or code, perhaps even illicitly acquired. That doesn't make Claude any less useful, just not necessarily for the reasons you think.

I had this when I was working with E-Ink display. Claude was using OP Codes I had no knowledge of and there was no documentation of.

It worked flawlessly but lets be honest. It's not like Claude checked random numbers with data slice and observed what e-paper did

Do these wild "what if" even matter? I mean, what's your point? That it was trained in a way that it enabled this sort of task? That's like putting out a disclaimer that the water is wet.
