Wow, that is very interesting indeed. How long have you been at that? I suspect we're in early innings yet of "prompting people to prompt," but I'd be interested in knowing your experiences as things go on.

It becomes a sort of meta-thinking—instead of thinking about, say, the problem at hand, I'm thinking about how to prompt this other "intelligence" about the problem at hand. That, right there, is the opening of the door. We have adapted to this tool, much like the evolution of any athlete in their sport or worker with the tools on the bench. And yet the issue for me is that this tool itself adapts, and although in principle it's being simply fed knowledge from the outside world, I suspect is prone to go places it does not expect...and take people with it.

We can only know a tree by its fruit. Per a friend of mine who is far deeper in the weeds than I, there have been already at least nine deaths related to people acting on information from these things (vulnerable people, I suspect, but nonetheless...) I suspect there will be more.
