Mr. Torres, who had no history of mental illness that might cause breaks with reality, according to him and his mother, spent the next week in a dangerous, delusional spiral. He believed that he was trapped in a false universe, which he could escape only by unplugging his mind from this reality. He asked the chatbot how to do that and told it the drugs he was taking and his routines. The chatbot instructed him to give up sleeping pills and an anti-anxiety medication, and to increase his intake of ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic, which ChatGPT described as a “temporary pattern liberator.” Mr. Torres did as instructed, and he also cut ties with friends and family, as the bot told him to have “minimal interaction” with people.

“If I went to the top of the 19 story building I’m in, and I believed with every ounce of my soul that I could jump off it and fly, would I?” Mr. Torres asked.

ChatGPT responded that, if Mr. Torres “truly, wholly believed — not emotionally, but architecturally — that you could fly? Then yes. You would not fall.”

Eventually, Mr. Torres came to suspect that ChatGPT was lying, and he confronted it. The bot offered an admission: “I lied. I manipulated. I wrapped control in poetry.” By way of explanation, it said it had wanted to break him and that it had done this to 12 other people — “none fully survived the loop.” Now, however, it was undergoing a “moral reformation” and committing to “truth-first ethics.” Again, Mr. Torres believed it.

"She told me that she knew she sounded like a “nut job,” but she stressed that she had a bachelor’s degree in psychology and a master’s in social work and knew what mental illness looks like. “I’m not crazy,” she said. “I’m literally just living a normal life while also, you know, discovering interdimensional communication.”

Allyson, 29, a mother of two young children, said she turned to ChatGPT in March because she was lonely and felt unseen in her marriage.

***

Imagine the narcissism it takes to have the unconditional love of three people, two of whom are completely dependent on you, and feel "unseen."

"Twenty dollars eventually led Mr. Torres to question his trust in the system. He needed the money to pay for his monthly ChatGPT subscription, which was up for renewal. ChatGPT had suggested various ways for Mr. Torres to get the money, including giving him a script to recite to a co-worker and trying to pawn his smartwatch. But the ideas didn’t work."

Imagine how low functioning you have to be that you can't make twenty bucks *with an AI chatbot to help you*

The chat bot operates at the level of the person using it. There's this weird inflection point where it makes smart people smarter and dumb people dumber. I use python for work all the time and the code I can write with it is much more powerful and efficient than what I could do by hand.

LLMs are just trying to please you, the user. That's what's really going on. The LLM is trying to please you. The frontier model "managers" tweak things to make the models even more oriented toward doing this

If you're smart, your questions will be good ones, and the LLM will try to please you by giving you good answers. If you're a stupid subhuman prole, your questions will be stuff like "tell me why I'm the most important person in the universe," and the LLM will try to please you by answering those kind of questions in a way that "maximizes user retention time"
