i was curious so i tried it with chatgpt. here are the chat links:
first expansion first summary second expansion second summary third expansion third summary fourth expansion fourth summary fifth expansion fifth summary sixth expansion sixth summary
overall it didn't seem too bad. it sort of started focusing on the ecological and astrobiological side of the same topic but didn't completely drift. to be honest, i think it would have done a lot worse if i made the prompt less specific. if it was just "summarize this text" and "expand on these points" i think chatgpt would get very distracted
Doesn't chatgpy remember the context of the previous question and text?
Maybe a difference in accounts and llms makes a bigget difference.
that's why i ran every request in a different chat session
Interesting. I also wonder how it would fare across different models (eg user a uses chatgpt, user b uses gemini, user c uses deepseek, etc) as that may mimic real world use (such as what’s depicted in the comic) more closely
