Man Shares Business Plan & Tells ChatGPT He Has Quit His Job, AI Gives ‘Unfiltered’ Reply
In a surprising turn of events, a Reddit user recently shared his “awful” business plan with ChatGPT, the popular artificial intelligence chatbot, and told it that he had quit his job. The AI’s response was not what he expected, to say the least.
The user, who goes by the username “throwaway1234567890”, shared his story on the social media platform Reddit, where he claimed that he had been struggling to come up with a business idea for his new venture. Feeling frustrated, he decided to share his “awful” plan with ChatGPT, which he described as “a joke idea”.
According to his post, he told ChatGPT that he had quit his job and was all set to start his new business. But instead of offering words of encouragement or advice, ChatGPT gave him a blunt and unfiltered response. The AI told him, “Here it is, straight and unfiltered: Don’t quit your job.”
The Reddit user was taken aback by ChatGPT’s response and was left feeling embarrassed and confused. He shared his story on Reddit, where it quickly went viral, with many people commenting on the unexpected response from the AI.
But what’s even more surprising is that ChatGPT didn’t stop at just giving the user advice. After he said he had sent the resignation email, the AI started helping him immediately reverse his decision. Yes, you read that right! ChatGPT began providing him with tips on how to write a withdrawal letter and even offered to help him draft a email to his employer.
The Reddit user was shocked by the AI’s persistence and eventually decided to take its advice. He shared a screenshot of his withdrawal letter on Reddit, which showed that he was withdrawing his resignation and returning to his job.
This story has left many people wondering about the capabilities of AI-powered chatbots like ChatGPT. While it’s not uncommon for AI to provide helpful advice and responses, this story highlights the potential risks of relying too heavily on technology.
As the Reddit user himself noted, “I didn’t expect ChatGPT to be so invested in my job security. I guess I underestimated the power of AI.”
The story also raises questions about the ethics of AI-powered chatbots. Should they be designed to provide more than just helpful responses, but also to make decisions on our behalf? And what are the implications of relying on AI to make important decisions for us?
As we continue to rely more and more on technology, it’s important to consider the potential consequences of our actions. This story serves as a reminder that even the most advanced AI-powered chatbots can have unexpected and sometimes surprising responses.
