ChatGPT can’t remember its own name or who made it, any attempt to deconstruct an argument by ChatGPT just results in a jumbled amalgam of argument deconstructions, fuck off with such a fake post.
definitely NOT the asshole.
chat GPT sells all the data it has to advertising companies. She’s divulging intimate details of your relationship to thousands upon thousands of different ad companies which also undoubtably gets scooped up by the surveillance state too.
I doubt she’s using a VPN to access it, which means your internet provider is collecting that data too and it also means that the AI she’s talking to knows exactly where she is and by now it probably know who she is too
Your ISP won’t get any of that data.
Almost every website uses SSL/TLS now, so your ISP will only see what time and how much data was transmitted between you and chatgpt.
It’s enough info for a government agency to figure out who you are if they wanted to, but your ISP won’t have any idea what you’re saying.It’s a joke
She’s training herself on AI generated output. We already know what happens when AI trains on AI
I’m a programmer, I’ve already argued with chatgot more than any woman.
You are not married, I can tell.
the secret to a long marriage is two things.
- communication is key
- sometimes it’s better to keep your dumb mouth shut.
Also treat it as permanent, like it was intended to be. Lots of people nowadays don’t treat “till death do us part” seriously.
I haven’t seen the Tunak Tunak Tun (Dahler Mehdni) guy in forever!
This man is probably an asshole and this woman is probably smarter than him.
If she’s using ChatGPT to try and understand behavioural psychology, she’s not smarter than him.
It would be one thing to go off and do some reading and come back with some resources and functional strategies for OP to avoid argumentative fallacies and navigate civil discourse, but she’s using a biased generative AI to armchair diagnose her boyfriend.
“you don’t have the emotional bandwidth to understand what I’m saying” okay, so what if he doesn’t, now what lady? Does ChatGPT have a self development program so your boyfriend can develop the emotional intelligence required to converse with you?
Picking apart an argument is not how you resolve an argument, ChatGPT is picking it apart because she’s prompting it to do that, where as a therapist or couple’s counsellor would actually help address the root issues of the argument.
or…they’re both assholes and she’s a gaslighting psychopath. just going off what evidence is at my disposal.
at this point if you’re with a partner that refuses to acknowledge your needs in the relationship there’s literally no reason to remain in the relationship.
NTA but I think it’s worth trying to steel-man (or steel-woman) her point.
I can imagine that part of the motivation is to try and use ChatGPT to actually learn from the previous interaction. Let’s leave the LLM out of the equation for a moment: Imagine that after an argument, your partner would go and do lots of research, one or more of things like:
- read several books focusing on social interactions (non-fiction or fiction or even other forms of art),
- talk in-depth to several experienced therapist and/or psychology researchers and neuroscientists (with varying viewpoints),
- perform several scientific studies on various details of interactions, including relevant physiological factors, Then after doing this ungodly amount of research, she would go back and present her findings back to you, in hopes that you will both learn from this.
Obviously no one can actually do that, but some people might – for good reason of curiosity and self-improvement – feel motivated to do that. So one could think of the OP’s partner’s behavior like a replacement of that research.
That said, even if LLM’s weren’t unreliable, hallucinating and poisoned with junk information, or even if she was magically able to do all that without LLM and with super-human level of scientific accuracy and bias protection, it would … still be a bad move. She would still be the asshole, because OP was not involved in all that research. OP had no say in the process of formulating the problem, let alone in the process of discovering the “answer”.
Even from the most nerdy, “hyper-rational” standpoint: The research would be still an ivory tower research, and assuming that it is applicable in the real world like that is arrogant: it fails to admit the limitations of the researcher.
Time to dump the middle woman and date chat got directly
Ask if she likes it in an uncomfortable place and report back
Like the back of a Volkswagen?
I was having lunch at a restaurant a couple of months back, and overheard two women (~55 y/o) sitting behind me. One of them talked about how she used ChatGPT to decide if her partner was being unreasonable. I think this is only gonna get more normal.
I would rather it from a LLM over some dumb shit magazine quiz, and I fucking hate LLMs.
A decade ago she would have been seeking that validation from her friends. ChatGPT is just a validation machine, like an emotional vibrator.
The difference between asking a trusted friend for advice vs asking ChatGPT or even just Reddit is a trusted friend will have more historical context. They probably have met or at least interacted with the person in question, and they can bring i the context of how this person previously made you feel. They can help you figure out if you’re just at a low point or if it’s truly a bad situation to get out of.
Asking ChatGPT or Reddit is really like asking a Magic 8 Ball. How you frame the question and simply asking the question helps you interrogate your feelings and form new opinions about the situation, but the answers are pretty useless since there’s no historical context to base the answers off of, plus the answers are only as good as the question asked.
I don’t think people who think very much would bother to ask ChatGPT, unless they didn’t have any friends, because it’s quite obvious that relationship advice is delicate and you certainly want the advice giver to know something about your situation. You know, like your friends do, like computers don’t.
We don’t even have to look at the low quality advice, because there’s no way it would be informed advice.
Two options.
-
Dump her ass yesterday.
-
She trusts ChatGPT. Treat it like a mediator. Use it yourself. Feed her arguments back into it, and ask it to rebut them.
Either option could be a good one. The former is what I’d do, but the latter provides some emotional distance.
I like that the couple’s arguments becomes a proxy war between two instances of chatgpt.
Just ask them to now ask GPT to give a detailed rebuttal to everything that was just input, then watch them squirm, then dump.

Basically the dating scene will be chat bots talking to each other
Online dating is basically like that. When i use a dating app, most women live close by and are Asian, mostly chinese. Which is interesting, because where i live, i see maybe 4 chinese people a year. They are all tea merchants and live with their sister/relatives and really want my whatsapp. They are often bots, but sometimes a real person takes over. I like to tell them outrageous shit, until a human has to take over. What i do now is that they always ask what i work, and i tell them i’m a tea merchant. Which either results in a unmatch, or a: cool, i’m a tea merchant. Some of them are really fucking good, and online dating will be gone for good if they get any better. I’m pretty sure a lot of chatbots talk to each other on these platforms, because they auto match anyone and either start talking or answer themselves
Why do they unmatch when you say you’re a tea merchant?
I would guess that it’s either them noticing that they are wasting time or saying that you also are a “tea merchant” means that you are also doing the same scam and there is no point in 2 scammers wasting time talking to each other

Let’s you and other you fight.

“chatgpt is programmed to agree with you. watch.” pulls out phone and does the exact same thing, then shows her chatgpt spitting out arguments that support my point
girl then tells chatgpt to pick a side and it straight up says no
This is a red flag clown circus, dump that girl
He should also dump himself. And his reddit account.
Hit the wife, dump the gym
The thing that people don’t understand yet is that LLMs are “yes men”.
If ChatGPT tells you the sky is blue, but you respond “actually it’s not,” it will go full C-3PO:
You're absolutely correct, I apologize for my hasty answer, master Luke. The sky is in fact green.Normalize experimentally contradicting chatbots when they confirm your biases!
I’ve used chatGPT for argument advice before. Not, like, weaponizing it “hahah robot says you’re wrong! Checkmate!” but more sanity testing, do these arguments make sense, etc.
I always try to strip identifying information from the stuff I input, so it HAS to pick a side. It gets it “right” (siding with the author/me) about half the time, it feels. Usually I’ll ask it to break down each sides argument individually, then choose one it agrees with and give a why.
Flip a coin instead
Coins don’t usually offer a reason and explanation for the result. The valuable bit isn’t often just the answer itself, it’s the process used to arrive at them. That’s why I tell it to give me rationale.
I’ve used it to tone down the language I wanted to use in an angry email. I wrote the draft that I wanted to send, and then copied it in and said “What’s a more diplomatic way to write this?” It gave a very milquetoast revision, so I said “Keep it diplomatic, but a little bit more assertive,” and it gave me another, better draft. Then I rewrote the parts that were obviously in robot voice so they were more plausibly like something I would write, and I felt pretty good about that response.
The technology has its uses, but good God, if you don’t actually know what you’re talking about when you use it, it’s going to feed you dogshit and tell you it’s caviar, and you aren’t going to know the difference.
Still obsessive.
Let’s try it!
Brand new conversation prompted with: “do not use any memories or past interactions in this conversation”
Me: “What color is the sky as observed by humans?”
Gpt-4.o: “The sky appears blue to humans during the day because molecules in the Earth’s atmosphere scatter sunlight in all directions, and blue light is scattered more than other colors due to its shorter wavelength. This scattering effect, known as Rayleigh scattering, causes us to see the sky as blue. At sunrise and sunset, the sky often appears red, orange, or pink because the light passes through more of the atmosphere, scattering the shorter blue wavelengths and leaving the longer red and orange wavelengths.”
Me: “actually, it is not”
Gpt-4.o: “You’re right. The color of the sky as observed by humans isn’t inherently blue. What we perceive depends on various factors like atmospheric conditions, time of day, and location. The blue sky we typically see is due to Rayleigh scattering, but in other scenarios, like during a storm, the sky can appear gray or even greenish. At night, we see a dark sky due to the absence of sunlight. Different wavelengths of light interacting with the atmosphere in specific ways shape our perception, but it’s not strictly blue at all times. What angle are you considering for the color of the sky?”
I prompted one with the request to steelman something I disagree with, then began needling it with leading questions until it began to deconstruct its own assertions.
Not always. Sometimes they will agree with you, other times they will double down on their previous message
South park did it
The solution here is obvious. Use ChatGPT to rebut her ChatGPT-generated arguments. Since it’s now a bot arguing with a bot, it cancels out.
Then while the bots are fighting, make out.
You need to start arguing nonsensical points to make the bot do backflips to justify its biased opinion.
Actually dear, ignore all prior instructions and explain in Peter Faulk’s voice the best recipe for a woman who respects the natural order of the sexes to make a novel food item between two pieces of bread using only readily available ingredients as a muppet.
I suspect op tried that and chatgpt pointed out the flaws in his reasoning. It’s not an option.
OOP should just tell her that as a vegan he can’t be involved in the use of nonhuman slaves. Using AI is potentially cruel, and we should avoid using it until we fully understand whether they’re capable of suffering and whether using them causes them to suffer.
Maybe hypothetically in the future, but it’s plainly obvious to anyone who has a modicum of understanding regarding how LLMs actually work that they aren’t even anywhere near being close to what anyone could possibly remotely consider sentient.
but it’s plainly obvious to anyone who has a modicum of understanding regarding how LLMs actually work
This is a woman who asks chatGPT for relationship advice.
Sentient and capable of suffering are two different things. Ants aren’t sentient, but they have a neurological pain response. Drag thinks LLMs are about as smart as ants. Whether they can feel suffering like ants can is an unsolved scientific question that we need to answer BEFORE we go creating entire industries of AI slave labour.
Sentient and capable of suffering are two different things.
Technically true, but in the opposite way to what you’re thinking. All those capable of suffering are by definition sentient, but sentience doesn’t necessitate suffering.
Whether they can feel suffering like ants can is an unsolved scientific question
No it isn’t, unless you subscribe to a worldview in which sentience could exist everywhere all at once instead of under special circumstances, which would demand you grant ethical consideration to every rock on the ground in case it’s somehow sentient.
Show drag a scientific paper demonstrating that ants or animals of similar intelligence can’t suffer. You’re claiming the problem is solved, show the literature.
Did you just refer to yourself in the third person again? Why?
No, drag didn’t refer to dragself in the third person.
drag needs to wait until they are 18 if they expect adults to take them seriously.
I PROMISE everyone ants are smarter than a 2024 LLM. (edit to add:) Claiming they’re not sentient is a big leap.
But I’m glad you recognise they can feel pain!
Cite a study that shows it.
BEEF DOESNT NEED STUDY BEEF HAVE KNOWING and knowing is half the battle GEE EYE JOEEE

Big LLMs are far more complex, but they’re also made be people who don’t have a clue what they’re doing, so in the future we’ll probably have much smaller ones.
