Oh my god I thought you were joking about the time travelling but it actually tells the user they were time travelling... this is insane

“You need to check your Time Machine [rocket emoji]” The emojis are really sealing the deal here

And the suggested follow up questions: "How can I check my time machine?"

Yeah one of the things I find most amazing about these is often the suggested follow-ups rather than the text itself, as it has this extra feeling of "not only am I crazy, but I want you to participate in my madness; please choose between one of these prompts"... or like, one of the prompts will be one which accuses the bot of lying to you... it's just all so amazing.

What if Skynet but instead of a Terminator it's just Clippy

Would definitely make me feel safer as judgement day would probably blue screen before launching the nukes.

The first comment refers to this bot as the "Ultimate Redditor", which is 100% spot on!

It sounds like a bit from The Hithchiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

People are reporting similar conversations by the minute.

I'm sure you thought chatgpt was fake in the beginning too.

Yeah, the style is so consistent across all the screenshots I've seen. I could believe that any particular one is a fake but it's not plausible to me that all or most of them are.

This is the second example in the blog btw. Under "It started gaslighting people"

The example in the blog was the original "Avatar date" conversation. The one I link is from someone else who tried to replicate it, and got an even worse gaslighting.
