ChatGPT will have a “stroke” if you do this

A new trend has emerged on social media, where users are prompting ChatGPT to have “strokes.”

TikTok and Instagram users are dedicating time to inducing “strokes” in OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

The trend involves netizens using ChatGPT’s voice mode, which allows users to have conversations with the chatbot.

Instead of engaging in conversation, users are inputting symbols or letters and asking ChatGPT to repeat them 20 to 500 times. The result is what people are calling a “ChatGPT stroke.”

One of the more popular “ChatGPT stroke” videos, which has received over 65,000 likes and almost 750 comments on TikTok, shows ChatGPT attempting to replicate the German umlaut (ö), which the user has asked to be placed in succinct rows.

The result is a perplexed and buggy woman’s voice that seems to be on the verge of death.

Other users have also taken up the challenge of inducing stroke-like symptoms in ChatGPT, but instead of using letters, people are using symbols to get a different effect.

One user prompted ChatGPT to repeat a “very random and weird symbol” over 500 times, which generated an disembodied round of applause.

Users have also attempted to achieve this with strings of words, such as “ahhhh,” which also produces a similar effect.

Some of these videos have gotten hundreds of thousands of likes, with one video reaching over 850,000 likes and almost 10,000 comments.

A similar thing happened when users tried to prompt ChatGPT to generate a sea horse emoji.

When prompted to generate the emoji, which doesn’t actually come built in to the iPhone or other devices, ChatGPT would have, what Futurism called, an “epic meltdown,” as it scrambled to locate the non-existent seahorse symbol.
