#ChatGPT acts like a #psychopath. It’s friendly at the beginning. It impresses you. It seems so reliable and full of truth. But then you find out: It loudly proclaims its own, made-up, wrong conclusions. Makes up references that don’t exist to justify them and continues to push its version. That level of gaslighting is typical of psychopath behaviour.

@jwildeboer Another take is that it is spectacularly incompetent, like absolute limit-of-possible incompetent, at discriminating truth from fiction. It doesn't do it at all. Not even a little bit. Zero processing cycles spent on that. Not one line of code.

It turns out that you've said something important about psychopaths here.

@Wikisteff @jwildeboer so ChatGPT is a "Boris Johnson" or "Donald Trump" as a service?

Apparently capitalism will fill every gap in the market.

@makegeneve @jwildeboer One of the characteristics of narcissists is that they confabulate fluently and seamlessly. GPT and other large language models lack the intention to gain advantage that folks with Dark Triad characteristics have.
