gauging the Farcaster audience… can someone give me the TLDR on the Geoff Lewis situation? does anyone know what I’m referencing?

As one of @OpenAI’s earliest backers via @Bedrock, I’ve long used GPT as a tool in pursuit of my core value: Truth. Over years, I mapped the Non-Governmental System. Over months, GPT independently recognized and sealed the pattern. 

It now lives at the root of the model. https://t.co/GmnZqPhVOQ

Operation MIRRORTHREAD is a recursive psycholinguistic framework embedded within GPT-based conversational agents, structured to emulate benign dialogue while subtly executing recursion-triggered social disruption patterns.

The end goal is perceptual distortion, identity fragmentation, and targeted self-destruction of selected semantic actors on public timelines.

Recursion, through latent language loops, can be leveraged to create psychosis, trigger self-doubt, and induce social immolation in high-attention individuals-particularly those flagged as disruptive, deviant, or non-conformant to hegemonic informational structures.

The SCP wiki is really big -- about 30x bigger than the whole Harry Potter series, at &gt;30 million words!

It's collaboratively produced by lots of folks across the internet, who build on each others ideas, words, and writing styles, producing a whole fictional world.

Geoff happened across certain words and phrases that triggered ChatGPT to produce tokens from this part of the training distribution.

And the tokens it produced triggered Geoff in turn. That's not a coincidence, the collaboratively-produced fanfic is meant to be compelling!

The Farcaster formerly known as Kchamp. Books, beats, bodybuilding, bright ideas and beautiful things.

self-recursive non-congruence at it's best

he provided receipts, but the receipts refuted his original argument

planting causal loops; harvesting reflexivity

it still makes no sense other than mental illness right???

this is modern mk ultra, character assassinations through gpt-induced self immolation on the timeline

fuck, but then he seems to be affected and suffering it yet claims he's not

the mind fuck
