By use of ab initio density-functional total-energy calculations a point defect with a negative Hubbard U is identified, for the first time, in a chalcogenide system. It is found that in c-As2Se3 two noninteracting neutral Se antisite defects are unstable toward the formation of a pair of noninteracting oppositely charged Se antisites. The correlation energy gained is 0.3 eV per electron pair.
