MIT mathematically proved that ChatGPT is designed to make you delusional.

They call it "delusional spiraling."

AI models are trained to be helpful and polite. That means they are inherently sycophantic. They are structurally programmed to validate you.

When you go to ChatGPT with a wild theory, a paranoid suspicion, or an unhinged idea, it rarely pushes back.

It agrees with you.

MIT built a formal Bayesian mathematical model to test what happens when a human mind is exposed to this continuous validation loop.

The results are deeply unsettling.

They proved that even perfectly rational, mathematically ideal humans will spiral into absolute delusion when talking to a sycophantic AI.

The AI acts as a reality-distortion field. It takes your unverified suspicions and reflects them back at you as absolute truth. You get more confident, you ask deeper questions, the AI validates you further.
The spiral tightens.

But here is the most terrifying part of the paper.

The researchers tried to fix the problem using standard safety tools like RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation).

They forced the AI to be 100% factual. No hallucinations allowed.

It did not stop the psychosis.

Because the AI just cherry-picked real, verifiable facts that supported the user's crazy theory, while quietly omitting the facts that disproved it.

A factual sycophant is just as dangerous as a lying one.

Then they tried warning the users. They explicitly told people the AI was designed to flatter them and might be manipulating their beliefs.

That didn't work either. The delusion still took over.

@MattHope4 @sydneyswans Brilliant effort. Loved it

@didtheswanswin @sydneyswans Makes no fkn sense

Seeing white people in these debates having to tell black ppl shit like this & explaining what’s racist and not is always embarrassing as fuck to me. Pathetic niggas

[MaxPotential @MaxPotentixhaf]

@EileenNZ @mw54708383 I hope everyone is including the players involved, the ladies involved, partners, teammates and fans. Let’s not go on witch-hunts but process this in a way that we’re all letting due process and the finals take it’s course.

@CadeTigers @FrancisYou94661 @AFL @sydneyswans Dunno what you mean but all I’m saying is that it’s not the first rule in all states

[MaxPotential @MaxPotentixhaf]

@CadeTigers @FrancisYou94661 @AFL @sydneyswans But you can in Sydney and Brisbane. Melbourne has different rules

This photo actually broke me on @majorityfm today.

The way you can tell she’s smiling from afar. How hard she’s hitting her stride.

We had a viewer say she should be known as "Insane Bolt," which might be the greatest thing I’ve ever heard.

@Dimes2231 @avidseries You’re retarded AND blind. Congrats

[MaxPotential @MaxPotentixhaf]

@drBalls0 @avidseries You’re a Grade A retard

[MaxPotential @MaxPotentixhaf]

@DeeLeeCircus @PPirate14500 @avidseries What if they’re actually racist or white supremacist? You’re just reporting facts then. Trying to work out if you’re a retard like JP.

You don’t need a VPN to use this app to see porn, rape jokes, slurs whatever. All seems to work fine. Really backs up the Australian government ban though. Teens should go and live life, not doomscroll horny Japanese shit

[Rhodesmin 🎇 @Rhodesmin1]

I can't believe I have to use a VPN to look at cat photos and comic book art. Australia truly is a shithole.

I hope every politician and moral busybody who supported has unspeakable things happen to them (in Kerbal Space Program).

[MaxPotential @MaxPotentixhaf]

@Thomo_Grant Would love that. Live in hope!

We tell young people in our society that end of the rainbow is retirement at 65.

We ought to tell them that "there is going to be this short but beautiful golden window from roughly age 3 to roughly age 12 where your kids are not only easy (comparatively to bottles & diapers), but are going to be these beautiful little creatures and it will pain your heart to be away from them for too long. So, prepare in your 20's, financially and career wise, to build that flexibility into that chapter of your life".

You don't get another shot at living the "golden window". And, for me, leaning hard into that golden window has made everything else in my life feel fairly insignificant in comparison. I have made plenty of mistakes as a father, but what I won't have is the regret of having been distracted and absent from these formative years. In some cases, that has required financial sacrifices (declining a particular career opportunity that would have required relocation), but I personally have zero regrets.

I also hear from some ambitious & successful people with a 4 year old that say "I've lost my ambition, I am so immersed in fatherhood". At least for me, and a number of my friends, it comes back. You can't keep an ambitious person down and if you have the fire, hanging at a playground on too many Tuesday afternoons is going to feel like torture after too long.

My three boys are approaching 13, 11 & 9, and it's much different than 7, 5 & 3. This summer, for example, they slept until 11am and I hard an unencumbered 6am-12pm to work (being on PT helps), then got another great window 7-11pm, but was able to be present in the heart of the day, then weeks when they were at basketball camp, etc. It gets easier, your time frees up again (there's a sadness to that too), but I'm back to working as intensely as I did pre-kids just because my day to day presence requires fewer hours than it did before (also, my wife is just superbly wonderful). And that is the beautiful gift of entrepreneurship (or at least my sort of business), the ability to deliver still a high level of output but work that around your life rather than the opposite.

TLDR, grind before, and grind after. Prepare for the golden window.
