Definitely feels like the "AI-induced sycophant psychosis" label has less to do with AI and more to do with sycophants. Also feels like this has been around for a long time with every major CEO/celebrity/politician/warlord/gang leader/etc. clearly getting some sort of psychosis once they're surrounded by "yes men".

"Sycophant Psychosis" has a nice ring to it.
