That's a good theory. I think my skepticism of AI comes from me constantly A/B testing my questions. When I ask and discuss things with it, and get an answer, I make a new session then larp as a leftwinger and ask the same things. It will constantly contradict itself and just agree with your worldview. (Although I do think most AI has a leftwing bias, since it is easier to get it to agree with that viewpoint). But I certainly see the ego stroking you are talking about!
