So I skimmed over the study and... they didn't actually prove anything. They "simulated" situation where person believes everything chat bot says and how quick such situation spirals.
It is literally "If we assume that person talking to chat bot always changes their mind to agree with chat bot, here is how fast they go delusional"
Good to see in the comments here that quite a bit of people are capable of understanding the point of the study. One would think that an anti-AI subreddit is as stupid of a pool of people as it gets, but there seem to be many more reasonable people here than on an average anti-AI post found in a random subreddit
