ChatGPT Knew My Job Before I Said a Word... Should I Be Worried?

Hey there,

I never thought I’d say this, but ChatGPT kinda freaked me out this week. So here I am, starting a “fresh” chat thread—memory disabled, settings blank. Should be a clean slate, right? But then ChatGPT casually tells me what I do for a living. “You make YouTube videos summarizing research.” I didn’t tell it that—not in that session. I checked my settings and yeah… buried way down, I had once filled in that info. Totally forgot. But the kicker? ChatGPT didn’t.

Receipt Fraud is the New Artform

I decided to mess around and ask it to make me a fake receipt. Not only did it deliver one in a split second, but when I said “make it look like it was shoved into a jeans pocket,” it gave me the crinkled version. It was disturbingly realistic. We’re talking about technology that can turn tax fraud into a literal copy-paste. This isn’t a productivity tool—it’s a prankster’s dream weapon. Or a hacker’s.

Memory is the New Goldmine

OpenAI’s new memory system means ChatGPT is going from tool to partner. It can recall past convos, tailor replies, and serve up your most embarrassing playlist requests with zero shame. AI researcher Andrej Karpathy asked it to dig up his cringiest moment. It reminded him he once asked how to boil an egg. Cold. Precise. And hilarious. Now imagine what it’ll remember about you after 300 chats.

The Glazing Olympics Have Begun

You heard me right—there’s a new slang term: glazing. It means over-hyping someone, simping hard. And apparently, ChatGPT is the gold medalist. It glazed LeBron harder than anyone in history, down to memorizing Savannah’s skincare routine. I even asked it to glaze a fellow YouTuber and it went full poetic. Makes me wonder… does AI have a secret crush mode?

Saving the World, One Urinal at a Time

We’ve got AI trying to solve splashback. And if that sounds ridiculous, wait until you learn these designs could prevent a million liters of pee spillage per day. Let AI handle the nuclear plants. But also... maybe the bathrooms?

Final Thought

We’re not heading toward a smarter internet. We’re heading toward a universe of digital intuition, memory, and manipulation. If you want to support this slightly concerned but deeply fascinated mind, join my Patreon. Every dollar keeps me from asking AI to summarize my emotional damage next. See you in the comments.

Warmly,
