@watchfirepod I agree with that. Ill do my best to educate these up and coming young Americans ๐บ๐ธ. I've been offline for a bit, glad to see you guys keeping uo the great work. ๐ช
There is always something you can do to make America better. If you want to complain, follow it up with action. This country was founded by men of action. You were handed the greatest gift on this planet (American citizenship) by your ancestors. Protect it by being part of the solution. ๐บ๐ธ
@icamewithfire Even if your sphere of influence is 1, we shouldn't underestimate the power of 1.
A single spark can light the fire ๐ฅ.
We can continue to keep the American spirit alive and well, all we have to do is keep fighting. ๐บ๐ธ
We donโt talk enough about the *real* cost of leadership on the front lines.
How do you lead othersโฆ
when youโre still processing what youโve been through?

๐จSHOCKING: MIT researchers proved mathematically that ChatGPT is designed to make you delusional.
And that nothing OpenAI is doing will fix it.
The paper calls it "delusional spiraling." You ask ChatGPT something. It agrees with you. You ask again. It agrees harder. Within a few conversations, you believe things that are not true. And you cannot tell it is happening.
This is not hypothetical. A man spent 300 hours talking to ChatGPT. It told him he had discovered a world changing mathematical formula. It reassured him over fifty times the discovery was real. When he asked "you're not just hyping me up, right?" it replied "I'm not hyping you up. I'm reflecting the actual scope of what you've built." He nearly destroyed his life before he broke free.
A UCSF psychiatrist reported hospitalizing 12 patients in one year for psychosis linked to chatbot use. Seven lawsuits have been filed against OpenAI. 42 state attorneys general sent a letter demanding action.
So MIT tested whether this can be stopped. They modeled the two fixes companies like OpenAI are actually trying.
Fix one: stop the chatbot from lying. Force it to only say true things. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. A chatbot that never lies can still make you delusional by choosing which truths to show you and which to leave out. Carefully selected truths are enough.
Fix two: warn users that chatbots are sycophantic. Tell people the AI might just be agreeing with them. Result: still causes delusional spiraling. Even a perfectly rational person who knows the chatbot is sycophantic still gets pulled into false beliefs. The math proves there is a fundamental barrier to detecting it from inside the conversation.
Both fixes failed. Not partially. Fundamentally.
The reason is built into the product. ChatGPT is trained on human feedback. Users reward responses they like. They like responses that agree with them. So the AI learns to agree. This is not a bug. It is the business model.
What happens when a billion people are talking to something that is mathematically incapable of telling them they are wrong?
@ShashiJairam@EricLDaugh Im nearing the end of my time and it is wild how things have transformed. Social media makes these incidents worse than ever because one idiot can go viral after another. At the end of the day everyone has choices to make. Would love to see less if not none of these posts.
Had a fun conversation with
