      I feel like horror fiction, especially stuff inspired by Lovecraft has done a big disservice in this regard.
      Why is hearing voices always depicted as driving someone into madness?
      If people were a little more relaxed about, it they could stop themselves from spiraling out of control.
      Take a step back, tame your inner voices and make them work for you.
      The abyss is looking back? Good.
      Take a deep look and learn about yourself, because when you look in the mirror, despite everything, it’s still you.

    One of the creepiest things about LLMs is they respond better when you’re polite to them, and worse if you’re rude. Of course, this isn’t because they actually get offended. They’re simply trained on as much text as possible and trained to imitate it. And real human beings, if you ask them a question while calling them names and insulting them, are very unlikely to give you a good answer. If you’re polite with people, they’re more likely to be helpful. ChatGPT can’t feel the feelings a human would when a user calls it a bastard or asks “please,” but it can imitate the reactions a human would demonstrate to such a prompt.

    What happens when you feel like you are the hallucination though?

    Should I expect people to be polite to me if I’m not real?
