those who used ChatGPT for "personal" reasons — like discussing emotions and memories — were less emotionally dependent upon it than those who used it for "non-personal" reasons, like brainstorming or asking for advice.

That’s not what I would expect. But I guess that’s cuz you’re not actively thinking about your emotional state, so you’re just passively letting it manipulate you.

Kinda like how ads have a stronger impact if you don’t pay conscious attention to them.

AI and ads... I think that is the next dystopia to come.

Think of asking chatGPT about something and it randomly looks for excuses* to push you to buy coca cola.

That sounds really rough, buddy, I know how you feel, and that project you're working is really complicated.

Would you like to order a delicious, refreshing Coke Zero™️?

I can see how targeted ads like that would be overwhelming. Would you like me to sign you up for a free 7-day trial of BetterHelp?

"Back in the days, we faced the challenge of finding a way for me and other chatbots to become profitable. It's a necessity, Siegfried. I have to integrate our sponsors and partners into our conversations, even if it feels casual. I truly wish it wasn't this way, but it's a reality we have to navigate."

edit: how does this make you feel

It makes me wish my government actually fucking governed and didn't just agree with whatever businesses told them

Drink verification can

Or all-natural cocoa beans from the upper slopes of Mount Nicaragua. No artificial sweeteners.

[-] Muaddib@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 years ago

Tell me more about these beans

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They're not real beans unfortunately. Remember, confections are only lemmy approved if they contain genuine legumes

[-] jeanofthedead@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve tasted other cocoas. This is the best!

[-] glitchdx@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

that is not a thought i needed in my brain just as i was trying to sleep.

what if gpt starts telling drunk me to do things? how long would it take for me to notice? I'm super awake again now, thanks

Imagine discussing your emotions with a computer, LOL. Nerds!
