i was curious so i tried it with chatgpt. here are the chat links:

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
