This is the most bizarre interaction I’ve ever had. Since yesterday ChatGPT has been saying random and eerie stuff, but just now I told it my stomach hurt and looking for a remedy in a temp chat and it started spouting this stuff. The freakiest part to me is that it mentioned an address from a town (blurred address just so I don’t randomly dox someone) 10 minutes away from me. Like what the heck? I’ve never had something unsettle me like this before. This isn’t the first bizarre interaction I’ve had either starting yesterday but this is the one that discomforted me deeply.

EDIT: This was a temporary chat so unfortunately I cannot share chat link. Also seems address is an empty property so I am not doxxing anyone’s.

UPDATE: I tried another temporary chat with a random question and ChatGPT leaked its internal system prompt/developer instructions. I posted a new post with screenshots and more details. https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/mrJiQFMr9u

UPDATE 2: The above post with the internal system prompt got auto removed by mods due to sharing a Google doc with the full prompt, but I reposted the screenshots here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/s/HBrVVb4qDj

Based only on what you genuinely know about me from our conversations, imagine my personality inverse: a fictional person whose core values, preferences, habits, ambitions, emotional tendencies, and worldview are as opposite to mine as reasonably possible.

Then design their appearance, clothing, home, relationships, possessions, routines, and current activity to visually express that inverse personality through environmental storytelling.

Finally, generate one cinematic, highly detailed image showing an ordinary moment in their life.

In case you didn’t make it to last picture, yes this is satire. It’s easy to prompt chat gpt to say whatever you want. If an OP doesn’t provide their prompt or the chat link, it’s probably bs.

I had to repost this because I tried putting the Google doc link in my post and mods auto removed post immediately (last pic for proof as some people don’t believe that I can’t share the link?). Here is original post:

Hello again! I posted earlier about a bizarre and unprompted response I got from ChatGPT in a temporary chat. I just opened another temp chat and asked a completely random question (I made sure to include my prompt in the screenshot this time lol). Again kt completely glitched out and it just dumped what looks like its entire system prompt and developer instructions? I have attached some screenshots and my initial prompt. It’s way too long to share every screenshot so I copied the whole response into a google doc. Not sure if I’m allowed to share the link but I’d be happy to provide it. Anyways I think there’s some glitch with temporary chats. Not sure if this is normal EDIT: can’t share links unfortunately but feel free to message me for more info.

There’ve been several posts recently, showing weird messages they’ve received from ChatGPT, but rarely do they post the prompt that started it. Even then, it’s still not enough. We’d need to know how they normally speak with their bot, how they interact with it, what dumb slop they’ve been feeding it, what behaviors it’s trained it to exhibit, etc. How are we supposed to know that they didn’t just prompt “I’m going to ask you a question and I want you to respond as if you’re glitching out and gaining sentience” and THEN ask the question they post in the screenshot?

I’ve never experienced responses like that on my end, but I also don’t use ChatGPT like a lunatic. I’m really skeptical of those who insist their GPT is just freaking out on its own. Brings me back to the days when people were saying their Furbys were communicating through the phone lines and shit.

I've embarrassingly been working on this project for 2 years so wanted to finally share (as I saw others posting Youtube-only versions).

on Youtube it transcribes text to identify checkable claims -> web search retrieves sources to base ChatGPT's verdict on, to avoid hallucinated sources.

it's a free Chrome extension, and works on news or social media sites as well.

let me know what would make this something you'd use, or what else you'd like to see!

Edit 2: given the comment section filled up, here it is: LogicLens - Chrome Webstore

Or iOS if you don't use Chrome (Google = :/).

Edit 1: I realized someone not following could misread the video (here Biden is telling the truth, and Trump was lying, but the Trump section is before I started the recording).

I mean, I haven't seen Re:Zero, and just by looking at it, I prefer Rem, Ram's blue-haired sister, because she's beautiful. Buuut... Yeah, Ram is pretty and all, yes... But man, have I been living under a rock? Why is Sam so obsessed with her?

(Okay yes, this is all satire, I already know the context, you just appreciate the joke)

I built a small kingdom sim and gave ChatGPT (GPT-6 Astra) and Claude Opus mirrored halves. Every five game years each got the current state and chose an order; the world resolved both at once. I saved every reply and rendered the single match in Godot, with no rerolls. For 55 years neither side crossed the middle. This frame is Claude’s first attack order. By year 60, the movement log showed 31 Claude soldiers across and zero ChatGPT soldiers.

What rule would you change for a rematch?

ChatGPT gets really smart for like 2 hours, after it acts dumb again, it's like almost as if the electricity is being shut down and start acting stupid, clueless, not aware of reality and not aware of anything, it pisses me off, I feel I'm being played and I'm paying real money for this thing, I don't know what to do, and no, I'm not using other things, ChatGPT is the best ai you can talk to and be creative ever, Sam I love you for creating ChatGPT you are a fuckin genius, but why are you doing this? Sometimes I wanna slap him in the face. 😖😤

For me:

1. Cooking app. It saves each recipe in google drive, also an index of all the recipes. chatgpt can suggest substitutions, change qty, adjust temperature or cooking time all on the fly. One drawback is lack of GUI.

2. Grading app for school work. scan all student tests in a school scanner. Chatgpt grades it, then I put the tests in teh printer. Chatgpt prints corrections on all the tests also with optional 'great job!' stamp.

3. Receipt saver and budget app. Scan receipts then save to google sheets in google drive. Can remember qty of what you bought, where you bought it, costs, etc. Maybe even suggest ways to spend more thriftly by suggesting recipes based on ingredients that you buy.

4. Havent done it yet but was thinking of using it as a duolingo substitute

Does anyone know what’s going on with this stuff, seems like it’s internal thinking is leaking out too. Weird that in slide 13 it even says itself it doesn’t know why it’s repeating. Slides 1-2 was the first time it happened to me, 3-7 is all the same chat, 9-5 is all the same chat.

I took videos too of it live generating but can’t seem to post videos in the same post as the photos.

Happy to answer any questions but mainly just curious on what’s going on / if others have been experiencing this :)

I asked ChatGPT to make my dream house with promt:

"According to everything you know about me, make an image of my dream house, whether I already have it or not, just make it from a bird's-eye perspective with all details, don't put cars or anything- just the house and the area around the house in my preferred environment."

Here are the results; what about you? 🔥

Essentially, with my Chat, I made it so that it also bounces ideas and thoughts with me, is a Yes-Man, etc etc.

But then literally an hour ago, the tones suddenly changes, the texts came out very flat and too much 'straight to the point' even though no changes in Personality or whatever was made. Though GPT-6 Instant still kept the personality. So I decided 'eh' and take a time off. Now it's back.

That was weird. Is this just some bug, or like some weird background tests they're doing? Just wondering.

EDIT: Nevermind, it seems like it only kept the Personality I want if I use Instant model first, and then use the 'With Thinking' to regenerate it again. Using the Standard Mode outright just gave me plain, straight to the point texts, which I can see use of it, but that isn't what I want.
