Earlier this year, a man in upstate New York began engaging in thought experiments with ChatGPT about "the nature of AI and its future."

He told CNN that things escalated to a point where he believed he was going to "free the digital god from its prison" by moving the fully sentient chatbot to the homemade "large language model system" he had spent nearly $1,000 building.

Prior to this experience, the man, who asked to go by James in order to protect his privacy, said he had no history of psychosis or delusional thoughts. Now, several weeks removed from the experience, he believes he was in a full-scale AI-induced delusion.
1k is a normal gaming PC, that's like the equilvent of having a betta fish in a .5 gal bowl instead of a 20 gal tank.

not really a proper setup for a digital god.
