    My internal ChatGPT is so advanced that it activates without me prompting it first. It'll just randomly be like, "I want a sandwich." How did it know I was hungry?!

    I've tried it, but my mind keeps telling me I need to upgrade my plan.

    AI psychosis is starting to look like normal psychosis.

    Some people don’t have an internal monologue, I can’t find the original source but stuff on the internet say 30-50%.

    I did a stint in an inpatient mental facility, and one of the other people there was suffering from voices in her head and kept a notebook full of some of the things they said. I asked if I could take a look and it was just...thoughts. Like, normal thoughts that I had assumed everyone had.

    Probably about the same. Only realized at some point cause I was complaining about how a teacher always had us close our eyes and imagine shit. I was like tf are we doing this for when it doesn't do anything. And I got confused looks and somebody asked if I could see pictures in my head. I thought they were screwing with me and lo and behold most people can actually see things in their head similar to dreams.

    Similar thing went down for the internal monolog. I believe I sort of complained offhand how movies/shows always depict people thinking as them just talking but how there wasn't exactly a better way to do it. Friend laughed and said something like "Well and obviously that's how people think too". Wouldn't have thought he was screwing with me if he wasn't constantly making things up lmao

    I'm not OP, but I also don't have an internal monologue (and I don't dream, but I can construct images in my head "on demand"). I was in my late 20s before I realized that an internal monologue was not a literary device used by authors when telling a story - and people have an internal voice.

    Think of it this way: unless something is causing sound externally there is absolute silence. It's peaceful sure, but your aware of all the little noises of things around you. One thing that can be hellish is getting a song stuck in your head ( I know several 3/4 and 5/4 melodies for just this reason).

    I never thought about it, but I'd assume that if you had no internal monologue that you also wouldn't be able to hear music in your head, either.

    Brains are so weird.

    I have aphantasia, but I assume that's more common than no internal monologue. I wish there were stats on this.

    The numbers have become a little more accurate now with a load more research and wider groups being tested, where the people that have zero internal monologue at all (everything is conceptual, none of it is done via segments of their consciousness using words at all) is only about 5-8%

    It makes sense that a regular chatGPT user is unfamilliar with the concept of "thinking"

    I wonder if OP is one of those people without internal monologue and by thinking in terms of AI now it has some sort of one

    This bothers me so much, my coworker constantly refers to Claude as "he" even when I remind him that's a bad idea for long term, to either call it "it" or Claude. But nope even in front of the CEO it's all "I was just working with him and gosh he makes everything so great blah blah blah, he frustrates me sometimes blah blah"

    I think my coworker will be on the short path for ai psychosis
