「 They say their loved ones — who in many cases had never suffered psychological issues previously — were doing fine until they started spiraling into all-consuming relationships with ChatGPT or other chatbots, often sharing confusing AI-generated messages, like Lewis has been, that allude to dark conspiracies, claims of incredible scientific breakthroughs, or of mystical secrets somehow unlocked by the chatbot 」

Someone actually approached me recently on the street claiming they had unlocked some secret with grok.

It took until reading your post to connect the two facts.

Thanks :)
