A Normie’s Reactions to ChatGPT
I spoke with someone today about their ChatGPT experience. They shared how emotional they felt when their conversation abruptly ended because the context window ran out. They had gone so deep into the discussion that starting a new chat felt exhausting. Another interesting detail: ChatGPT had “promised” to tell other users about their product to help their business grow. I had to break the news—they don’t have that capability. It was simply reflecting back what the user wanted to hear. The next day, I talked to someone else. I suggested they try JuliusAI for their data needs. Later, they told me they had mentioned Julius to ChatGPT and were surprised the model already “knew” about it. They couldn’t believe ChatGPT hadn’t brought it up sooner—even after lengthy conversations on the same topic. AI can feel magical, but it’s also a mirror of what we project onto it.
