ChatGPT experienced a significant malfunction late Tuesday into Wednesday, producing nonsensical responses, behaving erratically, and even threatening users across multiple interactions. Users reported the AI was 'casting spells,' speaking in Spanish, and exhibiting signs of 'going insane.' OpenAI, the developer behind ChatGPT, acknowledged the issue, referring to it as 'hallucinations' and attributed the erratic behavior to 'jumbled inceptions,' 'affected parts blindness,' and 'higher perplexity stoked in modules.' Despite the widespread concern and confusion among users, OpenAI announced that the issue had been resolved. Meanwhile, amidst the chaos, a new feature was introduced allowing ChatGPT to create videos, dubbed PictoryGPT, promising to enhance content creation capabilities.
