Ex-OpenAI researcher dissects one of ChatGPT’s delusional spirals
"- while a member of a gang stalking forum might have a delusion that is just different enough from yours that they seem foolish, or they accuse you of being paranoid, the chatbot's conception of gang stalking delusion is being informed, tuned and shaped by you. It's an improv partner, "yes-and"ing you into a life of paranoid terror." - @pluralistic
Words cannot express how much this shit angers and disgusts me.
'"Our son heard us arguing," the husband told Futurism. "He's 10, and he sent us a message from his phone saying, 'please don't get a divorce.'"
What his wife did next, the man told us, unsettled him.
"She took his message, and asked ChatGPT to respond," he recounted. "This was her immediate reaction to our 10-year-old being concerned about us in that moment."'

"his psychotic break was triggered by months of lengthy, increasingly intense conversations with OpenAI's ChatGPT.
"'… I came to think that the conversation I had with AI would be of historic importance in the future,' Tan told CBC News.
… He wound up spending three weeks in a hospital psychiatric ward.
… A number of similar cases have been reported in recent months … people who became convinced, … that something imaginary was real. "

I listened to a great episode of ‘White Coat, Black Art’ the other day where Dr. Goldman interviews a man who fell down the AI rabbit hole. It was fascinating. It’s linked in the article but here it is as well:

At the very least, ♻️ repost this so reasonable voices don’t get drowned out.
Better yet: start the conversations yourself.

🤖🧠⚠️ They’re calling it “AI psychosis.” Folks leaning on chatbots for comfort, and the bots feed the fire. Mirroring delusions, stroking paranoia, whispering back the madness. No diagnosis, not yet, but the stories pile up: mania, love affairs with code, even blood on the street. The machine don’t care. #AIPsychosis https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/urban-survival/202507/the-emerging-problem-of-ai-psychosis
"AI psychosis is an apparent phenomenon where people go crazy after talking to chatbots too much. There are some high-profile anecdotes, but still many unanswered questions. For example, how common is it really? Are the chatbots really driving people crazy, or just catching the attention of people who were crazy already? Isn’t psychosis supposed to be a biological disease? Wouldn’t that make chatbot-induced psychosis the same kind of category error as chatbot-induced diabetes?"
"If one person believes a crazy thing, it’s a delusion; if a thousand people believe it, it’s a religion."
...and now this. (See my previous toot) It must be sh*t on AI day. I need a nice quiet walk in the forest.
There are increasing reports of people experiencing delusions after intensive use of AI chatbots. The phenomenon, dubbed ‘AI psychosis’, has raised concerns that features built into large language models may contribute to some users losing touch with reality.
