Last year around the same time I figured that most of the content we read on social networks could be generated by advanced langage models. I then proceeded to research these models and gathered data on the agents in the various networks.

I stopped sleeping altogether, bought a ton of hardware and became delirious. I have now been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Some psychiatrists have classified my intuitions about langage models usages as "delirious mania". Some think I'm right - but manic nonetheless.

Terribly shitty situation.

At least with chat-gpt, it seems it could bring people out of their paranoid mindset.

I tried to talk to it about conspiracies, deep state, denialism etc, and the bot kept telling me that those things are not real, explaining why, and so on.

It had way more patience than me, and explained things better than I do when talking to tinfoilers :)
