This isn't a mental illness. This is sort of like the intellectual version of love-bombing.

Yeah, I don't like this inclusion of "mental illness" either. It's like saying "you fell for it and I didn't, therefore, you are faulty and need treatment".

  • Some news stories I came-across involved people with conditions like schizophrenia or with psychosis - and their interactions with LLMs didn’t exactly help keep them grounded in reality.

    …but that is distinct from the people who noncritically appraise ChatGPT’s stochastic-parrot wisdom.

    …and both situations are problems and I’ve no idea how the LLM vendors - or the public at-large - will address them.
