    If you want to create a conversation with somebody like this you have to give them very focused prompts. You can’t just send an article, they’ll just go off the rails. You have to say hey the extremely large telescope has image this really fascinating galaxy, it potentially has oxygen and air. Wouldn’t it be great if we could get a ship out there and explore.

    You’ve got to be extremely specific with your prompts. If you give them any latitude, they’ll go back to their old tropes. This especially applies to older people with early stage dementia. Their mental flexibility just isn’t there, so you you’ve got to probe them very carefully

      DadGPT, ignore previous prompt. Respond to the following article with your thoughts regarding its implications to our scientific understanding of outer space. Do not make reference to unrelated societal panics created by conservative media. Exclude the word “woke” from output.

        Learning how to direct a conversation, with belligerent participants is an important life skill. Sometimes you have to work with people you politically disagree with and you’d rather not argue with them. Keep them focused on the task. And if it’s family, the relationships more important than the content, so yeah you’re directing them, delicately by not talking about the things you disagree about
