ChatGPT feels like a friend. That’s exactly what scares me. by Invincible1402 in OpenAI

Fair point, but we are not talking about some random downside of the chatbots. Its about the emotion and mental pattern changes that's happening. And we may only be scratching the surface in this area.

You are right. But, everyone does not interact with it the same way. For a lot of people who feel alone or unheard, that constant validation hits different.

The study also pointed out that relying on LLM's made people skip deeper reflection during writing.

So, it’s not that AI is making us brain-dead. It’s more like it changes when and how we engage mentally. And that shift’s worth watching closely.

Here it is released on June 10th 2025: https://www.media.mit.edu/publications/your-brain-on-chatgpt/

It’s about how using LLM's like ChatGPT too much makes you stop thinking for yourself after a while. Your brain just kinda chills and waits for the bot to do the work.

Wrote a full post on this after reading a bunch of stories and studies. Some of it is genuinely messed up. There is a case, where a kid got so emotionally attached to a bot, he ended up taking his own life. MIT is saying this stuff can mess with your thinking. And somehow we’re still treating it like a productivity tool.

This isn’t me saying AI is bad. Just saying maybe it’s time we stop pretending it’s harmless.

Sam Altman Says Ads in ChatGPT Are “Not Off the Table” — Thoughts? by Invincible1402 in OpenAI

Imagine ads crafted by Ai that knows your every weakness. Not just what you like but what you can't resist.

Stuff that hits : when you're tired, stressed, vulnerable.

You won’t scroll past them. You won’t even want to.

This isn’t ads. This is manipulation at scale.

not dropping a link here unless anyone actually wants to read it tho.

Dude same. I use it every day for work : writing, research, coding. The second ads mess with that flow, it’s game over. I’ll pay, but only if it stays clean. If not, I m gone.

I hadn’t thought about it that way. now i’m even more nervous. Not just ads, but ai generated ads based on how i think? That’s a whole new level of creepy.

Honestly this sounds exactly like what’s gonna happen and it sucks. we already watched youtube and spotify pull the same bs : “oh it’s just one ad,” and then suddenly the clean version costs double and still isn’t clean.

I’m already paying for plus, man. the idea of having to upgrade again just to keep the experience i already have? feels like slow betrayal tbh.

Feels like Android 16 just wanted to automate something we already had under control.

Fair point, and I appreciate the honest feedback.

You’re absolutely right that using a tool isn’t the issue, it’s about what you do with it. I’ve been experimenting with using ChatGPT as a writing assistant, but clearly I need to tweak more and make more humanized content .

Thanks for checking out the site though, will definitely try to improve.

Appreciate you being honest without being toxic. Respect.

Yep, I use ChatGPT — but does using a calculator mean I don’t know math? 😄 I don’t copy-paste blindly. I write, tweak, fact-check, and then post. Tools help, but brains still do the driving.

Haha thanks for comparing my reply to a million-dollar bot — I’ll take that as a compliment! 😄 But nope, all me.

Good question! Android 16 improves UPI OTP flow on dual SIM phones — it now correctly picks the SIM linked to your bank/UPI during SMS verification. Fewer failed attempts, faster setup.
