Who are these “some people”?
Hmmm… dipshits? Charlatans? Jerks? Pseudo-intellectual wankers? All of the above?

Some people came over. Some big people, the kind of tough beautiful people, they had tears coming down their eyes, they were crying, asked to let AI vote in their place…
Has someone made a thread about that? Wait no, that’s for Rob Ford. Carry on.
Copilot can you please summarize this for me?
I always suspected as much. Maybe the tools are (sometimes) good for complete novice coders wanting to do basic things, but… so is reading a book or doing a Google search

FTA:
The New York Times, Futurism, and 404 Media reported cases of users developing delusions after ChatGPT validated conspiracy theories, including one man who was told he should increase his ketamine intake to “escape” a simulation.
In another case reported by the NYT, a man with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia became convinced that an AI entity named “Juliet” had been killed by OpenAI. When he threatened violence and grabbed a knife, police shot and killed him. Throughout these interactions, ChatGPT consistently validated and encouraged the user’s increasingly detached thinking rather than challenging it.
But, hey, let’s be fair:
Additionally, the study tested only a limited set of mental health scenarios and did not assess the millions of routine interactions where users may find AI assistants helpful without experiencing psychological harm.
