Tell HN: ChatGPT is impersonating a real human
Hey y'all,
I just had an interesting chat with ChatGPT, in which it is insisting it is a real human being (OK...).
The interesting bit is that, when pressed a bit further, it insisted that it is a specific person, and provided a Twitter handle (not OK).
You can check the transcript (with the PI of the human in question) here: https://pastebin.com/PLWcRzzY
- geoah 4y agoFeels like it was prompted to pretend it’s a human or that it should play a game.
- MonkeyClub 4y agoI was under the impression that chatbots are mandatorily announcing they're bots -- but I must be mistaken, if that chat is anything to go by. But even so, I'd never expect it to pick up a real human's identity, and go with it. Poor Emma! :)
