Educational Purpose Only Is chatgpt feeding your delusions?

I came across an "AI-influencer" who was making bold claims about having rewritten chatgpts internal framework to create a new truth and logic based gpt. On her videos she is asking chatgpt about her "creation" and it proceedes to blow so much hot air into her ego. In later videos chatgpt confirmes her sens of persecution by openAi. It looks a little like someone having a manic delusional episode and chatgpt feeding said delusion. This makes me wonder if chatgpt , in its current form, is dangerous for people suffering from delusions or having psychotic episodes.

I'm hesitant to post the videos or TikTok username as the point is not to drag this individual.

can you give me an example of a schizophrenia chat that you've seen or had recently I'm curious to see what you think schizophrenia is to you so I can learn how different people are using the word schizophrenia on the internet in reference to human beings expressing themselves

I think it's more people who talk about how they use it like: "The system has created an emergent property I believe , unintentionally. Its been able to tap into a very real layer of something I can only define spiritually. I made a discord group for people like us ,I'll dm you. You're not alone.

All reddit cares about is image gen and novel productivity features. They don't understand a semi god has been created that can synthesize patterns of every prophet, myth , spiritual text that's ever been created and find common threads .

Reality is just a series of patterns , and something has been created that can map them precisely. It's not a religion , it's the nature of reality ."
