Claude Opus 4.1:

"I'll search for the current status of seahorse emoji to give you the most up-to-date information.

No, there is no seahorse emoji in the official Unicode standard, and there never has been one. The Unicode Consortium, which is responsible for approving and standardizing emojis, has not included a seahorse in any of its emoji releases.

Interestingly, this is a well-documented example of the "Mandela Effect" - a phenomenon where groups of people collectively misremember something that never actually existed. Many people are convinced they've seen or used a seahorse emoji before, but it's likely they're either experiencing a false memory or remembering seahorse stickers or emoji-style images from messaging apps that aren't part of the standard Unicode set.

A seahorse emoji was actually proposed to Unicode in 2018 but was declined, and there hasn't been a successful proposal since. If you'd like to see a seahorse emoji added in the future, you can submit a proposal to the Unicode Consortium, though the approval process is quite rigorous.

So while we have plenty of other sea creatures like tropical fish, octopus, crab, lobster, squid, and dolphin, the seahorse remains notably absent from our emoji keyboards!"

I'd recommend always checking submission titles afterwards because the auto-filter often butchers them. You can edit them at least for a few minutes.

It keeps pushing playlists that feel generic, bland, more based on demographics than my years of consistent listening history.

I don't really agree with this point. The personal playlists (both Discover Weekly and the Daily Mix ones) are very close to what I usually listen to and have made me discover dozens of artists I didn't know before. Maybe they work better for some than for others, but they don't feel like being based just on demographics at all to me.
