People experiencing "ChatGPT psychosis" are being involuntarily committed to mental hospitals and jailed following AI mental health crises.

An interesting article about people using AI for seemingly innocuous tasks but spiral into a world of mysticism and conspiracy theories sparking a mental health crisis. I stark reminder to always remain conscious of the fact that AI has a monetary incentive to be sycophantic and keep you engaged.

    The followers must feel humiliated by the ostentatious wealth and force of their enemies. However, the followers must be convinced that they can overwhelm the enemies. Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak.

      Which is why capitalists always ultimately bend the knee and go along with fascists, because the smart ones understand that the fascist movement is utterly unsustainable and will collapse catastrophically, and it is exactly that species of crisis that allows rich ruthless capitalists to lock in their power for generations.

      The dumb capitalists just go along with the fascism because they have lobotomized their empathy and like the pure expression of worship of power.

      This is the heart of the love affair between fascism and capitalism. Most capitalists actually end up being horrifically shocked by the consequences of consumating that love with fascism but by then of course it is by design too late.
