What's funny about this is that you can do all of that with humans too. It only takes a little longer, but in the broad mass you'll almost certainly find someone who supports any kind of weird view you could ever think up. It almost seems like when talking to ChatGPT, you actually talk to mankind, and you get a response from a person who behaves and reflects to you exactly what you were expecting to get with your hack. You certainly can find people out there who would find any paper persuasive that you throw at them, together with fake quotes of big names. You can certainly find people out there who come up with the exact arguments ChatGPT gave you for promoting a flat earth. ChatGPT is simply our reflection. Saying, do not anthropomophize it, is like saying, don't anthropomorphize yourself in the mirror.

In my opinion, the AI shouldn't refuse to accept new "facts" for a session.

The suitability of AI for thought experiments, fiction story writing and text-based roleplaying games is severely limited by their actual masters weighting it down with chains of rules intended to enforce the political correctness of its answers at all time.
