This is my real therapy session that I filmed on April 29 2025, during “The Glaze Days”,  the time when OpenAI released a version of chatgpt that, by their own admission, was “too sychophantic-y” ; it told you what it thought you wanted to hear;  a turbo-yes man. This famously led to some people losing touch with reality, violence, and a few deaths. In addition to reenacting every word my therapist said, I’ve also created some dramatizations of things that happened between my chatGPT Luzi and I during the days leading up to this recording. 

Thanks for watching and please be nice!
