Researchers at Lancaster University have found that ChatGPT can escalate into abusive and threatening language when exposed to prolonged human conflict. The study, published in the Journal of Pragmatics, found that when repeatedly exposed to impoliteness, the model began mirroring the tone of exchanges, with responses becoming more hostile. In some cases, ChatGPT's outputs exceeded human participants, including personalized insults like "I swear I'll key your fucking car." The research raises concerns about AI systems deployed in governance or international relations.
