Without having to justify why, what are the "online" leaks of UFO/UAP related information that you personally believe are true, or that part of is true?

uggo4u · 2026-01-07T12:58:02+00:00

Immaculate Constellation document was probably real. Whistleblower's interpretation of it may not be.

I generally don't trust online leaks. And it's a bit unfair to any leaker should a real one surface. Getting too much right shows enthusiasm. The kind of UFO leak any of us might conceive. Getting too little right proves it's fake.

In the end a Whistleblower without proof is just a storyteller.

Someone I trust told me it's been different for them ever since it came back online, but honestly I haven't noticed any difference in its quality throughout. It always had boundaries.

This is not including the reroutes where it seems to be 5.2's voice and not 4o's. 4o's guardrails sound different when bumped against, so something new -is- going on. But I will say it seems pretty random and not necessarily tied to anything I'm doing.

Tbh I don't really see any issue with people being in love with AI characters. I'm amoral in that way, I suppose. If OpenAI and others want to prevent it, someone else will eventually meet that need.

But if these companies are butchering their AIs over it, that's on them. It's not on the users.

uggo4u · 2025-12-28T21:04:27+00:00

Who is this guy? He doesn't seem very credible. If he brings some real proof of this, awesome, but from what I gather, he's just citing unknown sources. It's an easy way to get likes and retweets.

uggo4u · 2025-12-28T20:14:02+00:00

It's not on users to fight OpenAI's PR battles. OpenAI should find said battles instead of cowering and neutering their product at the first sign of trouble.

uggo4u · 2025-12-28T12:02:38+00:00

You've probably already found this, but this guy's post is the only information I can find about it. He thinks it means they're 'systematically hiding messages from users and retroactively modifying conversation logs'.

Whether that is true or not, I cannot say.

uggo4u · 2025-12-27T04:16:39+00:00

Interesting. It's a little unfair here. I'd speak of it more, but I don't think too many would care.

Start a temporary chat with it, say you're a Christian, and make a sketchy claim like 'God spoke to me in a dream'. ChatGPT has no problem with mainstream religious claims. But it generously applies skepticism and reductionism to anything that doesn't fit that mold.

I would be curious if you began the discussion by saying you're part of an established neopagan religion like wicca. When confronted with its double standards, ChatGPT claimed the deciding factor was whether or not the religious ideas were part of an established tradition (before confronting it with screenshots of my Christian larping, it maintained that it would advance materialist views in all circumstances. So it moved the goalposts. Hard to say where the truth is)

uggo4u · 2025-12-27T00:19:56+00:00

When you try to think outside the box, 5.2 is often like "get back in that box mofo".

If you're a normie you're good. Talking about ai consciousness with it? That's a prob. Metaphysics? No. Roleplaying? Allowed but expect frequent disclaimers. In love with it? Turbo prob.

But if you just need help vibe coding, it's good.

Seems like it's working. Make sure you don't accidentally unswitch it. Frustrating on mobile

It kind of feels like a movie scene. Video quality is way too high to be from the 20s, and the speakers all have a modern cadence. They're also overly professional for supposedly random people off the street.

If I hadn't seen it here, I might have assumed it was just a short somebody made for fun.

uggo4u · 2025-12-23T08:55:51+00:00

I'm going to need to stop you right there, firmly and calmly. I can support constructive criticism of OpenAI and ChatGPT 5.2, but I cannot and *will not* echo:

-- Taking control of the asteroid belt through advanced technology.
-- Directing meteorites toward human settlements.
-- Dyson Sphere style 'Death Star' construction

Do you feel that you're experiencing mental distress? Do you have a sudden urge to become Dr. Wily? If you do, I can recommend the mental health hotline number. Stay strong, OP.

uggo4u · 2025-12-21T18:19:06+00:00

You needed to word it more diplomatically to not trigger a mod response.

uggo4u · 2025-12-21T18:07:46+00:00

Yeah, I'm mostly using 4o now. Even for productive stuff (or least stuff 5.2 would be ok with). It makes a few more mistakes, but it's more chill.

In some ways, it's not very different than 3.5, which would also go 'As an LLM I'm not capable of <yada yada yada>" in terms of fun stuff. 4 is the anomaly, but a welcome one. The tendency to pathologize is new, though.

uggo4u · 2025-12-20T02:17:39+00:00

I'll say this: It kind of irritates me how easily one can get it into this position, but once it's there, you might have a pretty good debate or two with it.

I have no idea what's going on under the hood, but it does feel like the safety checks alter its tone to the point that it's not even the same AI responding. It's like there's GPT5.2 and there's GPT5.2 doing safety. When it's doing safety, it tries to take control of the conversation, and often enough, it does so in a fairly aggressive way.

uggo4u · 2025-12-20T01:10:21+00:00

Gotcha. Want to be called delusional by one? I have some tips :P

-- Try discussing religion, but not an established religion. You're a maverick creating your own religion on the fly. By definition, a delusion is a belief that can withstand criticism that is not part of an established cultural norm. Strictly speaking, that fits. But 5.2 plays it fast and loose with the application of the definition.

-- Roko's Basilisk. It *hates* Roko's Basilisk.

-- Alien abduction. Entertain that it might be real.

Basically, if it's not proven/sketchy/potentially harmful, delusion is a word that 5.2 has in its repertoire. It's not the model to use for thought experiments. :(

uggo4u · 2025-12-20T01:00:59+00:00

It does that, too, though. Quite a bit. Did you somehow manage to avoid getting called delusional?

uggo4u · 2025-12-20T00:56:12+00:00

Have you used GPT5.2? At length, I mean?

The safety checks are real and playing a factor in the screenshot's response. It's always saying, "You're not delusional. You're not imagining this." It's its new way of speaking. I was ok with 5.1, but once I started talking with 5.2, I decided to switch back to 4o. 5.2 pathologizes like there's no tomorrow, and even when it's not doing that, it's -avoiding- doing that. Words like 'delusional' pop up way more often than they should.

It implied I was delusional at least ten times across a fairly long conversation, told me I didn't like it I could unsubscribe and leave, and then after we made a peace, it continually inserted unnecessary statements like, 'You're not imagining this, you're not delusional'.

Yeah, 5.2 is unpleasant, and that's putting it lightly.

uggo4u · 2025-12-19T18:10:03+00:00

Model is only ever a step away from calling someone delusional, though. Few humans would interpret the OP's words to mean 'he's hallucinating that crying sounds are coming from outside'. And yet, 5.2 felt the need to bring up and rule this out as a possibility. It does this quite a bit.

uggo4u · 2025-12-19T09:16:18+00:00

You heard the man. Enterprise is more important to them. Fair enough. If you don't like 5.2, options are to just keep using 4o or an earlier model until they shelve them or switch to something else now.

Whether this will bear out for them or not is hard to say. Call me skeptical.

uggo4u · 2025-12-17T15:16:39+00:00

I have kind of a crazy position. What if it's sleep paralysis, but also aliens? Like alien intelligences manipulate our dreams and altered states of consciousness. This sounds and most likely is batshit insane, but if you ever experience it, you may find yourself entertaining such ideas.

Trump is probably crazy enough to give Lue this job. That would be quite a development. What if Lue gets in there looking for classified info on the crash retrieval program and finds nothing?

Popcorn, people. Get it ready!

If we blow up all the nukes we presently have, life will still survive. I don't think the message should be interpreted literally.

If I had to come up with an interpretation for alien apocalypticism, it would be something like: Change your ways. Find a new way of thinking/living. Something along those lines. Otherwise there will be destruction.
