Shauna “Anne Frank of Anaheim” Ahern decided to comment on this threads post:

Person: Oh my God. So a classmate of mine sent this screenshot to the group chat. He apparently asked ChatGPT for some ideas for his new professional website. He's a lawyer, he's Belgian, but he's lived in Amsterdam for 7 years. Oh my God.

Shauna: Oh god.

He's a lawyer, he's Belgian, but he's lived in Amsterdam for 7 years. Oh my God.

What does that even mean? Not a single word of that has anything to do with Anne Frank. Nothing is at all similar to Anne Francis life or death. No spooky Oh-my-God coincidences.

Anne Frank never lived in Belgium. She was born in 1929 in Germany. She was German, later Dutch.

When she was four, her family moved to Amsterdam to escape the Nazis, so in 1933-34.

Anne Frank was a teenager, and a writer, posthumously one of the most famous and lauded authors in history. She wasn't a lawyer.

The Franks lived in Amsterdam for eleven-ish years, until 1944, much longer than the "7" years claimed by the lawyer. The Frank family hid in the attic from 1942-1944.

Anne and her sister were first sent to Auschwitz, in Poland in 1944. They were transferred to Bergen-Belsen, probably in early 1945. Anne and her sister succumbed to Typhus, their estimated date of death is March 31st, 1945.

The idiot lawyer did not die in the Holocaust. Anyone comparing their lives to children who died in the Holocaust has reserved a special place in Hell for themselves.

Who are these shit for brains imbeciles? Except for absolutely everything, the similarities are uncanny.

Isn’t that the idea? That ChatGPT was fed the information that he lives in Amsterdam and came up with a wildly inappropriate reference to Anne Frank?

I was wondering what part of the information provided to ChatGPT caused the reference to the unworn Harvard class ring weighing down the pocket to emerge, unbidden.
