alt Hacker NewsI'm thoroughly confused on why someone would type this into a chatbot. Was the chatbot on the sheriff's website and that's what was being used? Was the person using their on their end on getting advice on how to phrase it better?
Then again, people willing to make these comments aren't people that I tend to understand or empathize with anyway, so using a chatbot shouldn't be something I should expect to understand either.

I wonder if it would be considered a threat to type the same things into Notepad. If so, fiction writers are in trouble.
People are putting a weird amount of moral weight on LLM prompts that they don't apply to other programs.

many people are using chatbots as personal therapists, a friend to vent to, a diary that provides feedback, etc.
