TranscriptA news.ycombinator.com screenshot. It has two comments. The first reads: "I told ChatGPT my mom's name the day my account got persistent memory, last april. I also told it to figure out my dad's name. Once a month or so I would ask it my mom and dad's name. By november it had figured out my dad's name. https://x.com/kenwarner/status/1859637611595214888" It has a reply saying "Unfortunately I feel like the fact that your dad's name is the same as yours somewhat diminishes that accomplishment.".
