How is this different than a Tamagotchi?

It may not be, but the same question applies to them.

I guess with Tamagotchi, people played along with having their natural instincts hacked, they understood that they were actually just dealing with a dumb toy. With ChatGPT it seems a bit less straightforward, for those people who are strongly affected by being buttered up.
