For anyone wondering, the PhD student's name is Myra Cheng.

Here's a link to an article about the study from the Stanford Report: link.

Across three preregistered studies, participants interacting with sycophantic AI became more convinced of their own rightness and less willing to repair relationships. Yet at the same time, participants rated sycophantic AI models as higher quality, more trustworthy, and more desirable for future use, which may explain why this behavior has persisted despite its harmful impacts.

Myra Cheng et al. "Sycophantic AI decreases prosocial intentions and promotes dependence." Science 391, eaec8352 (2026).

so my friend just texted me to see how i’m doing today. i said i’m alright why do you ask. and he said you were wearing more rings than usual today. and i said yeah what’s that got to do with the price of fish. he replied. with. “You wear more rings when you need the extra sensory input in your hands, which is usually correlated to an overall worse mental state because usually you like less sensory input, your max number of rings is 3 or 4. So I thought I’d check on how you’re doing.”

to be loved is to be known but jesus christ please be a little stupider.

*inserting new RAM into my 10 year old motherboard* "Shhh... hey, hey! It's okay girl. I didn't mean to startle you. I know it's been a little while. I've got a nice little treat for you here, okay? It's going to help you run smoother. There now, see? That wasn't so bad. I'm sorry girl. I didn't realize how much stress I've been putting you under, streaming Elden Ring with only 8 GB of memory... No wonder you're having trouble with Baldur's Gate 3. You've been doing so good though. I know you'll probably have to go soon, but we still got a few good years left. Hopefully this will help ease any pain you've been feeling. I'm going to put the cover back on the case now, okay? I love you."

Yes, a lot of us do have an orange or a red undertone.However, we don’t look like we’ve like we’ve been airbrushing our skin with blood okay, we’re not in the hollywood movie set in the global south filter every minute of every day also, we TAN don’t forget tan, lines.
