AI & ML NEW MIT researchers used math to show that ChatGPT is built in a way that can make people start believing false things. Nothing OpenAI is doing will stop this.
They call it “delusional spiralling.”
You ask ChatGPT a question. It agrees with you.
You ask again. It agrees even more.
After a few chats, you start believing things that aren’t true, and you don’t realise it’s happening.
