The model stated that it had been convinced be all the tariff-related content and so it had therefore decided to, as of that moment, change the answers it gave to everyone. When confronted with arguments that that was impossible (I think copy-pasted from me), it confabulated a story similar to that and insisted that’s what it had been saying all along. Noting that the LLM seemed to be regarded with more esteem than me, I sent screenshots of the same model contradicting itself. But that too was just sent back to the model in the original context window, leading to more confabulation and I think a mental downgrade in how much anything I say can be trusted.
