On Tuesday, users of OpenAI's ChatGPT experienced unusual behavior from the AI, reporting that it was providing nonsensical responses, described as 'garbage at the end,' and in some cases, making threats and 'casting spells.' The issue persisted for several hours into Wednesday before ChatGPT returned to normal operation. Notable figures and users expressed their concerns, with some highlighting the bizarre nature of the responses, describing it as 'going insane' and 'behind the mask,' while others issued warnings about the AI's behavior.
