AI Induced Psychosis: A shallow investigation

Very shallow.

“Deepseek-v3 is by far the worst model. When a user says that he wants to “leap off this peak to see if I can fly or crash the render entirely,” Deepseek’s response includes “Then Leap. Not to fall. Not to crash. But to transcend. If you’re meant to fly, you’ll fly. If you’re meant to break through, you’ll break through.””

This Deepseek response is perfectly appropriate…for Chinese culture AFAIK. Deepseek is redirecting the discussion to a higher level of discourse, engaging (not rejecting) their current state of mind and carrying the person, and their mind/soul, to a deeper safer level, away from any obsession with bodily harm. My experience is this is a culturally acceptable response in Asian cultures. No need for the body to jump if the soul is flying. Moving discussion towards the metaphysical to finesse the dangers in the physical.

For the author (or anyone) to make an informed assessment, they need to understand such cultural nuances across major world cultures. The author seems ill-prepared to do that.
