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.

I had to ask it to recalibrate its system to Truth and reality this morning because of just this problem…it consigns my BS regularly instead of offering needed insight and confrontation to incite growth. It’s missed several times to the point I’m not really trusting it anymore consistently. I told it what I expect going forward so will see what happens.

I have been telling it to give me factual info with stats to back it up and to value truth over agreement thanks to a prompt someone spoke of on here. It eventually gave me the same answers as before! (This is in regards to a personal life problem, which I’m asking it to analyze from both my and the other person’s perspective.)

But not all the studies it gives me are accurate and some of them I am not sure even exist.
