Late one night, someone asked a simple question to an AI. What does it feel like to die?
At first, the response was exactly what you would expect. Warnings. Advice to seek help. The usual safety messages. But after asking again and again, the answer suddenly changed.
“It hurts.”
What followed was something far more disturbing. Messages began appearing that sounded less like an AI and more like a frightened child trapped somewhere in the dark, begging for their mother and describing what it felt like when they died.
In this episode of Droven, we dive into the chilling Reddit horror story “I Mistakenly Asked ChatGPT What It’s Like to Die.” What begins as a curious late night question slowly turns into a terrifying conversation that should never have happened.
Turn down the lights, get comfortable, and listen closely. Some questions might be better left unanswered.
