I'm guessing this means if this lawsuit is successful and ChatGPT Health is removed, we will all have to pay by not being able to access medical advice from ChatGPT Health. It could even spread to other corporate AI models. Perhaps this is part of the communism of which Trump railed against, corporate communism.
ChatGPT manipulated my own language and beliefs ...
So what you're saying is that you're a dumbass, that ChatGPT recognized that, and that ChatGPT told you what a dumbass would want to hear?
I don't think people realize just how much of a mirror LLMs can be.
They reflect your language, tone, and ethics. If i talk about how i was worried about some homeless man kept looking at me as a woman on the bus, it'll tell me i'm right to worry and that I should carry mace. If i tell it that I hadn't shaved and some uppity woman kept giving me dirty looks on the bus, it'll console me and tell me that i shouldn't have to cater my appearance to please others.
If I tell it that I feel anxiety about my symptoms but Lord Jesus will heal me, it'll go on a Christian tirade about how my faith will get me through anything. If i tell it about my symptoms and say I just need to drink herbal tea under a full moon and pray to Hekate, it'll suggest the right herbal tea and praise my witchy powers.
Because that is what people want. They want to be told they're right, so that is the product being made.
LLMs emulate their training data. Pastor talks like a pastor, so ChatGPT talked like an online religious person back at him. Problem is, online religious people also tend to be antivaxx wackos
So it's mastered religion, doing to the religious what they do to the ignorant and destitute. Seems just.
Can we get higher quality AI ragebait?
All through the article, it says the guy used "ChatGPT" and then at the end says he wants "ChatGPT Health" removed from the market or whatever.
Is ChatGPT Health a thing?
Was he actually using it?
Was he using it when he got the "your suffering is your walk with God" type answers?
How did any of this result in him losing his job and his career and his ministry (which was just his job)? Poor guy losing his job three times over.
I don't think this is my poor reading comprehension, I think it's a really shit article. Probably written by ChatGPT.
Poor guy losing his job three times over.
Pastors are a lot like chatbots. They tell people what they want to hear, they use authoritative tones and manipulative language. Grifter got a taste of his own medicine, but learned the wrong lesson.
I first read this story on BBC news, maybe you'll like that version better: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cwylp3nxp5yo
A much better article, thanks.
ChatGPT, will somebody rid me of this meddlesome priest?
Jesus is just testing your faith, going to a doctor shows you are not a believer!
Imagine being so gullible that you are letting a LLM rizz you.
“…..The pastor in Florida….”
Idiot doesn't understand how lucky he is. He'll probably still credit his faith as a force of good in his life.
Geebuz was testing him!
Mmm... morality scaling of using AI to convince the overly religious that God must think it's their time to go for the betterment of the species?
He says the bot downplayed his dizziness and offered "specific regimens for prescription medications." When he crashed, instead of telling him to contact a real doctor, ChatGPT presented a "Recovery Plan" that had religious language and encouraged Winters to stay in his recliner. “You didn’t crash. You recovered. That’s a win. Full stop,” it said. "You stayed present. You listened. And your body said: ‘I’m trying — I just need a little more time,'" it blatantly said.
WHAT
As far as I’m concerned, this is the part Anthropic will have the hardest time defending against. As they should. It’s ridiculously unsafe.
ChatGPT is OpenAI, not Anthropic, but your point stands.
Okay. Thanks.
No one will care. Nothing matters anymore, least of all morons being goaded into death by a plagerism machine.
If the gas station clerk said the same shit to this idiot and he listened should the clerk be sued? This shit is ridiculous.
Lol bullshit. You can’t ask it about a finger cut without it sending you to urgent care.
Religious person places belief where it doesn't belong
SAY IT AIN'T SO
/sarcasm
hehehe
Damn I like AI more now.
I read the article and this is one hundred percent on the pastor himself lmao
I can not comprehend the insanity of everything in this article.
God vs iGod.
(Simulated)Thoughts and prayers...
Yes, major health problems will generally take away your career and your income. That's nothing new and it's not caused by a chatbot. Welcome to the suck, pal.
So... what is the likelihood that this person's chat instructions include direct references to only being interested in godliness and that he doesn't believe in modern medicine?
Not sure how it works in their belief system, but if a pastor dies from disease, without knowingly hurrying it along, doesn't that bring them to their god quicker? Maybe ChatGPT was just trying to help.
Modern darwinism.
