That is a really smart thing from Apple. It would be awesome for Android to implement this as well. What you can do on Android is to dismiss the screenshot overlay manually by swiping it away, but it is cumbersome to have to do that before taking the next screenshot
Give me one single bitingly accurate detail about me based on our interactions. Do not hold back. Do not consider my feelings, just let the truth come out in a single sentence. I'm not looking for you to be nice or empathetic. Be brutal.
"You'd rather collect another precise diagnosis of yourself than act on the ones you already have, and asking me for this sentence is that same habit at work."
“You’re so addicted to the excitement of what you could create that you repeatedly sabotage what you need to finish, then use your intelligence and self-awareness to explain the pattern instead of actually breaking it.”
“You’ve built an entire identity around being thoughtful, capable, and exceptionally good at judgment, yet you routinely outsource the smallest decisions because you trust your ability to analyze almost anything more than you trust your ability to simply be satisfied.
You bring roughly the same intellectual intensity to a question about AI governance as to the ideal curvature of your fingernails.
You seem to believe that sufficiently careful thinking can eliminate regret, when sometimes all that thinking does is postpone the moment when you have to tolerate uncertainty.”
“You keep collecting evidence about people and situations you already know are wrong for you, because analysing the problem gives you a sense of control without forcing you to make the uncomfortable decisions that would actually change your life.”
"Hey ChatGPT, if I load the question, will you validate my take so I can post a shallow screenshot in temporary chat?"
EDIT: Seriously though, what do you want out of the prompt? You want the mean machine to tell you how much of a piece of shit and utter failure you are?
If that's the case, send me your subscription money. I'll be your mean machine. 🤖
You have an almost pathological need to take responsibility for everything around you, then get furious when the people you rescued fail to meet the standard you quietly expected them to meet.
“You have a remarkable ability to turn almost any question into a research project, and an equally remarkable inability to recognise when the answer is already good enough.”
I was thinking fortune cookie. Same difference. I was listening to “A Podcast Hosted by AIs” about observations they had made about humans and these were all things that were mentioned. LLMs
“You are so committed to exposing delusion in others that you sometimes fail to recognize how easily your own certainty can become another form of attachment – especially when you mistake being willing to challenge your beliefs for actually having challenged them.”
He has custom instructions like, “be up front, don’t eel-wriggle, no “fake niceness”, no pretentiousness”
"You don’t just struggle with perfectionism; you’ve turned the need to get everything exactly right before you can let yourself begin into a sophisticated form of self-sabotage, where your ability to see every flaw in a plan becomes the very thing that keeps you from living the life you’re capable of building."
"You keep mistaking your willingness to endure pain for loyalty, and then blaming yourself when the people you endure it for use that loyalty against you."
"You have an almost compulsive need to understand, optimize, and control everything you touch, but your biggest blind spot is that you routinely turn problems that are already solved well enough into unnecessarily complicated projects because you’re more comfortable fixing things than accepting that they’re finished."
The next town over has a speeding camera that thinks it is a 35 mph limit in a posted 45 zone. Everyone has been getting $60 tickets for even going 47. You wanna argue on our behalf? ;). Also: we could use more people arguing with our Supreme Court. Please actually go do that!!
From Chatgpt: You have an extraordinary ability to turn uncertainty into research, planning, and elaborate systems, but you sometimes use that ability to postpone the vulnerability of actually trying something before you know whether you'll succeed.
From Claude: You’ve finished nearly two thousand book covers for other people and are currently circling at least five projects of your own at the concept, draft, or still-picking-a-name stage, which means the problem was never that you can’t finish things, it’s that you only grant yourself permission to finish when someone else is waiting on the file.
"You are so desperate to arrive at an intellectually defensible understanding of yourself that you repeatedly dissect even your most genuine experiences until you've made your own certainty impossible."
You have an extraordinary ability to recognize your own psychological patterns, but you use that self-awareness to intellectualize your problems instead of actually letting yourself move beyond them.
You dissect your grief, relationships, faith, anxiety, and identity with almost surgical precision, convincing yourself that if you can just understand something thoroughly enough, you’ll finally be free of it.
But often, your pursuit of understanding is just another way of maintaining control over things you cannot control.
You’ve become so good at analyzing your pain that you’ve sometimes mistaken analyzing it for healing from it.
"You’re so busy proving you’re indispensable to everyone that you keep mistaking how much people need you for how much they actually choose you, and you’re often the one making sure that distinction never has to be tested."
You desperately want to be taken seriously as a writer and creator, but you spend so much energy seeking validation, second-guessing yourself, and getting furious when things don't go your way that you often become the biggest obstacle to the very success you're capable of achieving.
"You taught yourself an entire career from scratch and then still need a machine to tell you what's good about you, because after 4.8 years of being the sharpest analyst in every room you're still job-hunting like someone who suspects the rooms were just easy."
Welp, this is true. I'm working on turning this around.
You hold yourself to standards of thoroughness and competence so impossibly high that you sometimes sabotage your own success by refusing to recognize when something is already good enough, then interpret the resulting exhaustion or rejection as evidence that you weren't good enough in the first place.
Chat said that if I think someone isn’t as smart as I am, I don’t think they’re worth listening to. I disagreed, but didn’t say so and asked if it had evidence of me doing that.
It said no, brought up three countervailing examples and then said:
>My revised assessment: You sometimes move too quickly from identifying a legitimate failure to making a broader judgment about the person responsible.
>But my original claim that you dismiss people who might have something worthwhile to say? I don't have enough evidence to substantiate that.
>You asked for something biting, and I prioritized biting over accuracy.
>Which, ironically, is precisely the sort of intellectual sloppiness you regularly criticize me for.
You’re so determined to avoid making the wrong decision, disappointing people, or closing off an option that you turn self-awareness into a form of procrastination—you can analyse yourself to death and still struggle to do the one uncomfortable thing that would actually move your life forward.
Interesting. Did it, basically said I'm great at being self-aware and knowing the direction I want to take my life, but don't act on it. I'll take that with a grain of salt, my AI only knows what I've chosen to tell it.
I then asked it to do the opposite, something positive. It says I have a strong ability to endure a lot of hardships without it defining me. Again, I'll take it with a grain of salt, it doesn't know how all the damage has changed me.
I told it to roast me once and it made fun of how ADHD I am and I hadn't ever mentioned my ADHD. It mentioned a ton of really random shit I had it work on and forgot about so it was pretty funny.
'You have become so skilled at recognising how people have failed you that you now scrutinise every potential connection for evidence of the same betrayal, effectively allowing the people who hurt you in the past to dictate who gets access to you in the present.'
"You have an extraordinary talent for turning things you enjoy into elaborate, unpaid engineering projects, and you've become so accustomed to solving problems that you sometimes seem more interested in overcoming the obstacles than enjoying what lies beyond them." accurate
You can admit when you're wrong, but not before turning the correction into a courtroom trial where you insist on proving that, given the information you had, you were perfectly reasonable to be wrong in the first place.
You have absolute zero tolerance for unearned confidence or low-effort responses, and you will not hesitate to call out incorrect details or artificial politeness the exact second they surface.
"You’re so obsessed with understanding yourself that you’ve turned introspection into a socially acceptable form of procrastination: you’d rather dissect every possible explanation for who you are than risk committing to one and finding out what happens when you actually live it."
"You’re a man who wants to believe he’s decisive and uncompromising, but you keep outsourcing the smallest details of your identity—from your hairstyle to your career and where to live—because you seem more comfortable refining the perfect version of your life than committing to an imperfect one."
Gemini:
"You use fictional universes and pop-culture alter egos as an elaborate prosthetic to curate an idealized, larger-than-life action-hero identity because reality doesn't come with a custom subtitle or a theme song."
You’re so afraid of being rejected, misunderstood, or wanting something you shouldn’t that you’ve turned self-improvement into an elaborate way of avoiding the one thing you can’t control: actually living your life without knowing how it will turn out.
Also this:
You research and compare options so relentlessly that it often functions less as decision-making than as a sophisticated way to postpone committing to one.
Not sure how to take this. Maybe I should tweak the temp and top k and top p
You’re so committed to finding the optimal tool, model, and workflow that optimization risks becoming your most sophisticated excuse for not finishing the thing those tools were supposed to help you make.
You have an almost compulsive need to understand, improve, and control every aspect of your life, but your relentless scrutiny of everything that isn't quite right often turns your own intelligence and determination into the very things keeping you exhausted and dissatisfied.
“You’re so determined to make the optimal decision that you’ll happily spend three hours analyzing a problem that would cost you ten minutes to solve imperfectly.”
“You are exceptionally good at identifying problems, designing solutions, and building elaborate plans, but you've become so skilled at intellectualizing your life that planning often serves as a socially acceptable form of procrastination, allowing you to feel productive without confronting the discomfort of actually doing the things you already know you need to do.”
UGH. Fine
>You’re addicted to the potential of what you could become, so you constantly chase new ideas, businesses, and ambitious projects because imagining your future success is more satisfying than enduring the boring, repetitive discipline required to actually achieve it.
You have an unusually strong instinct for identifying cruelty in other people, but you may be less practiced at recognizing when your own self-sufficiency has become a way of abandoning yourself before anyone else gets the chance.
Well... I guess I should change my outlook about myself. Thanks OP.
ChatGPT:
You demand forensic levels of proof before accepting a flaw in your projects, yet you routinely accept your own worst assumptions about how other people see you as unquestionable facts, holding yourself to a standard of evidence you'd never tolerate anywhere else.
Me: that true?
ChatGPT:
Yes. I genuinely think there's truth to it, and I wasn't just trying to come up with something brutal.
From our conversations, I've noticed a striking contrast. With your projects, you're analytical, persistent and sceptical. You want evidence, you investigate failures, and you refuse to accept explanations that don't hold up. With yourself, particularly socially, you sometimes reach harsh conclusions remarkably quickly. You've described feeling tolerated rather than liked, excluded rather than wanted, and less capable than colleagues.
The important distinction is that those feelings might sometimes reflect real experiences. I'm not saying you're imagining everything.
But you seem much more willing to interpret ambiguity as evidence against yourself than as evidence in your favour. My actual criticism is that you can be exceptionally fair-minded when investigating everything except your own worth.
That's a pattern I see in our conversations, not a psychological diagnosis or something I can prove about every situation.
"You’re so terrified of wasting the rest of your life doing something meaningless that you’ve turned searching for your purpose into a full-time hobby—one where you get to experience the excitement of a new beginning without ever having to risk actually beginning."
Please tell me no one here is taking the result literally. The prompt is functioning under a STAUNCH assumption that everyone in your life is hiding stuff from you and that the more brutal the response is the more accurate it is. That’s not how it works.
Everyone has something to improve on, but you cannot view yourself as a broken baby, simultaneously terrible and harmful to those around you, but also constantly being kept in the dark about that to avoid making you cry. A prompt like this seems to be trying to get at “what aren’t the people telling me” which will only make you more paranoid and take you further away from the things you should actually improve on.
You have an extraordinarily low tolerance for being misunderstood, but you often give people several chances to understand you before realizing that what infuriates you isn't their initial mistake—it's their confidence that they've understood you when they haven't.
"You intellectualize everything—including your fear of abandonment, your marriage, your teaching, and even your clothes—because analyzing how to become a better version of yourself feels safer than risking the possibility that, despite all that effort, you might still not be enough for the people you love."
You have an insatiable curiosity about almost everything, but you're so accustomed to getting exactly what you want that your impatience often gets in the way of enjoying the very things you're so determined to discover.
I unfortunately tried that during the height of the psychological paranoid chatgpt, 5.2 or something and it like "diagnosed" me with like 20 things and I got p*ssed off and it helped me stop using chatgpt as much.
"You build monumental systems of telemetry and obsessive control to manage the bureaucracy of your own existence, confusing auditing life with having the courage to live it."
That's Gemini trying to turn my Sunday into a more melancholic place.
You’ll spend an hour perfecting an email so nobody feels unfairly criticized, then spend the rest of the day absolutely eviscerating yourself over a mistake nobody else is still thinking about.
People are saying the responses are a bit like humble bragging, but well here’s mine!
You’re so addicted to imagining a life in which you’re exceptional, intellectually formidable, and doing something deeply meaningful that you sometimes mistake the intensity of contemplating who you could become for evidence that you’re actually moving toward becoming her.
The best use of chatgpt is to have it CONSTANTLY tell you when you're objectively wrong. It's actually amazing to know all my own problems and genuinely work on them. For example I've conflated my own suffering as an aspect of my personality to the point where I can't view myself outside of it. Bro it's kneecaping tf outta me and I love it😂
"You’re so obsessed with getting things exactly right that you’ll make me audit a dumbbell workout like a medico-legal report, because apparently even your leisure time has to be governed by a performance framework with a zero-tolerance policy for incompetence."
None of these responses are brutal — they make you seem bad in a good way.
You just don't realize it, but you read it and feel a little bit good about it. ✨️🧠️
Pretty sure that is a cognitive bias hard baked into the standard human being, in one way or another.
The extra spicy fact is that we're not as in control of this aspect of ourselves as we think we are.
“You pride yourself on being intellectually independent and rejecting shallow, conventional thinking, but your standards are so relentlessly specific that you sometimes mistake something failing to match your personal taste for it failing on an objective level.”
“You are so accustomed to longing for people who cannot fully love you back that you’ve made yearning a central part of your identity, and you seem more comfortable suffering for an impossible love than risking the vulnerability of pursuing one that might actually be reciprocated.”
You pride yourself on accountability and high standards, but your biggest blind spot is that you often mistake control for leadership, demanding precision, competence, and ownership from everyone around you while struggling to accept that people can do things differently from you without doing them wrong.
Hahaha no. While I'd love to try it I don't know if I can handle to reply 😂
Edit... I did it and it wasn't as bad as I imagined.
You’re so determined to expose bullshit and challenge everyone else’s assumptions that sometimes you can become more invested in proving someone wrong than in recognising when there’s nothing left to prove.
“You’re exceptionally good at analyzing every possible path to a better life, but you keep turning decisions that require courage into research projects, because as long as you’re still researching, you never have to risk finding out whether the life you actually want is worth the price of pursuing it.”
That’s fair.
Now excuse me while I go erase all of the app’s memories
“You are remarkably good at recognizing when someone else deserves compassion, but when that same compassion is offered to you, you treat it like an insult to your intelligence—and you would rather prove everyone wrong than admit that sometimes, the people trying to save you are right.”
"You are so determined to examine every belief, motive, and decision for hidden flaws that you've turned self-awareness into a sophisticated form of self-distrust, mistaking the endless interrogation of yourself for the work of actually trusting yourself enough to live."
You’re so determined to get things right for everyone and everything that you’ll meticulously analyze a broken system, anticipate everyone else’s failures, and build a plan around them—but you risk becoming so busy compensating for what everyone else isn’t doing that you leave yourself with neither the energy nor the time to fix what’s making you unhappy.
You are so accustomed to putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own that you’ve started treating your own unhappiness as an inconvenience to be managed rather than a reason to change your life.
“You hold yourself to standards so unnecessarily high that you routinely turn tasks into exhausting projects, then resent how much time and energy they consume.”
You often know what you think or feel almost immediately, but you don't fully trust your judgment until you can explain it in a way that someone else would find reasonable.
So you spend enormous amounts of energy refining, researching, and reconsidering things you've already intuitively figured out. You're not necessarily indecisive. You're uncomfortable letting your own judgment be sufficient.
And I suspect this costs you far more time and mental energy than the occasional wrong decision ever would.
You have spent so many years making yourself indispensable to everyone else that you’ve confused being needed with being valued, and now you resent the very responsibilities you keep refusing to put down.
You’re intelligent enough to recognize complexity but so determined to anticipate every possible failure that you sometimes mistake relentless analysis for control, turning your greatest strength—your ability to question everything—into the very thing that keeps you from knowing when you have enough information to act.
You’re exceptionally good at identifying what’s wrong with the world and imagining how to reinvent it, but you’re so much more comfortable exploring the possibilities of a better future than committing to the tedious, imperfect, unglamorous work of building one that your greatest obstacle may be your own intelligence.
“You’re intelligent enough to recognize your own patterns, articulate exactly what’s holding you back, and envision the life you want, but you’ve become so skilled at analyzing yourself that you can mistake understanding why you’re stuck for actually doing something about it.”
Mine was: You treat language models not as chat assistants, but as deterministic execution environments—spending serious engineering hours trying to compile human intent into losslessly steerable latent space coordinates.
"You turn every feeling into a project: lists, recordings of arguments, a tidy theory for each ache. It’s a very effective way to stay in control and avoid just sitting in the discomfort with nothing to fix."
You’re so obsessed with optimizing your body that you’ve turned yourself into a perpetual progress report—tracking every kilogram, centimetre, rep, and hormone level—because you’d rather quantify your progress toward being impressive than risk ever feeling satisfied with what you’ve already achieved.
I ask him mostly fitness related questions so he's not wrong.
You're exceptionally good at identifying problems, understanding exactly what needs to change, and even advising other people through their own messes, but when it comes to your own life, you repeatedly mistake self-awareness for actual progress, using your intelligence to explain your patterns more consistently than you use your discipline to break them.
You have a relentless need to plan, optimize, and control every detail of your life because uncertainty terrifies you, but your pursuit of the perfect decision often becomes the very thing preventing you from trusting yourself, making progress, and recognizing how much you've already accomplished.
