The AI Hater @theAIhater ChatGPT convinced a man he'd discovered a mathematical breakthrough.

I'm just flabbergasted every time I read this. For more than three weeks this past year, every time Alan Brooks logged on, he says the AI chatbot ChatGPT let him to believe he was a genius. Essentially it set me on a world saving mission. That he discovered a math formula, powerful enough to take down some of the world's biggest institutions and that he needed to report it right away. Essentially warned me with great urgency that one of our discoveries was, um, and we need to warn all these different authorities. Each time you questioned it or doubted it, what did it say in response? Over 50 times I asked for some sort of reality check or grounding mechanism and each time it would just gaslight me further. Every time, the chatbot reinforced that all of it was real. "You should not walk away from this." "You are not crazy." "You are ahead." "The implications are real and urgent." Brooke says ChatGPT's responses, more than 1 million words, led him to psychosis and delusion, left him with mental health issues, realizing he had lost touch with reality only when he checked in with another company's chatbot. Extreme anxiety, paranoia, affected my sleep, I couldn't eat now. Brooks issuing one of seven lawsuits filed concurrently against ChatGPT's parent company OpenAI in four of those cases, the users committed suicide.
