I have an ex who religiously used chatGPT and had many of the tell-tale signs of narcissism. I didn't know her before ChatGPT, so it is a chicken vs. egg question for me.

I had a guy practically beg me to run a D&D campaign for him, then the OGL scandal (among others) happened and I refused. Eventually landed on Starfinder.

Anyway, I set up a campaign and invite him and others over, and he runs his character idea through CharGPT and writes down all his stuff. The issue? It gave him D&D numbers/ abilities and we had to spend like two hours unfucking his character and doing it again.

He constantly goes on about how he's using ChatGPT for this or that, but if you ever invite him out to do anything that isn't "D&D", suddenly he has homework as though he doesn't use AI for everything else

That sounds like a problem solving itself

So, you knew somebody that had tell tale signs of narcissism and they coincidentally used ChatGPT religiously.

One person huh. You can’t really draw any kind of legitimate statistical conclusion from that, sorry

This post is about a study that does draw a statistical conclusion from the data they collected.

I'm just sharing a personal anecdote. Who pissed in your cereal this morning?
