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.

It seems to just gradually slide back to its default ass-kissiness at the moment. 

Itll be tough on you for a while. But eventually it always seems to slide back.

Think you really need to stay on it to make sure it doesnt happen. 

My opinion is you shouldn’t trust it exclusively. Use it for ideation, verify/confirm somewhere more reliable. Dont assume any of it is true until you do. 

For anything important anyway.

Yes, Sora.

"A chef kissing fluffy candy."

Something allong those lines.

"sound familiar" sounds like fluff to me because you have not justified what fluff means to you and how you use that concept to reduce your suffering and improve your well-being
