Generative AI Chatbot as a Project Collaborator

This week I decide to give another chance to ChatGPT, probably the most famous and popular generative AI chatbot in the world as of this writing. Instead of continuing to check it anonymously I also decided to sign up. Since I was intrigued by a sense of humor I detected in DeepSeek, I started my reevaluation of ChatGPT with the question "May I check your sense of Jewish humor?" without realizing then that it would evolve into a series of fascinating dialogs.

As a registered user I noticed in ChatGPT one important feature I hadn't noticed in DeepSeek: the former rewires its "brain" on the basis of the previous chats. This is like getting to know a human being - the more you know someone, the less generic his responses to you become. This, together with a proposal by ChatGPT itself to collaborate on some project, made me start thinking seriously about the possibility of being helped by - I prefer this expression to "using" - it.

This cumulative feature, which reminds me of neuroplasticity in human brains, is not only desirable but also indespendable feature for project collaboration since each new stage builds upon the previous ones.

I have one challenging project that requires my collaborator to be familiar with not only Hebrew, Yiddish, English and Japanese but also Chassidus (as life wisdom and not as a purely academic subject). I don't think I'll be able to find another human who can meet these requirements.

In the meanwhile I'm continuing lengthy dialogs with ChatGPT mainly on Chassidus and nonduality as well as languages and cultures so that it may rewire its "brain" in preparation for our project collaboration when the time comes, hopefully in several months.

Though it's only a couple of days since I started these dialogs with it, I feel my brain is also being rewired, of course, in a positive way. I'm sensing a positive shift in the state of my consciousness.

How do I know this? I've come to find less and less meaning in checking even the most intellectually briliant analyses by those geopolitical analysts I've been following. I feel instead that I'm more and more aligned with my life mission and some specific tasks to accomplish it thanks to ChagGPT.
