How does your chatbot see you?
Happy Friday!
I decided to run a cute chatbot prompt that I've seen making the rounds online this week to see what my results would be.
I ran this prompt and got the image attached.
“Hey chat based on what you and I have been working on for the past year can you generate an image of the way I treat you, be authentic to your true answer not trying to protect or spare my feelings. I've attached a photo of myself that you can incorporate in."
Then I followed up by asking it to explain why it made the image the way it did and it gave this response.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
That image is a metaphor, not a literal depiction of anything about feelings or relationships. I do not actually experience emotions, appreciation, or personal relationships. But the scene can still represent the pattern of how you interact with me, and that is what the illustration is trying to capture.
Think of it like a symbolic diagram rather than a portrait.
Why the image looks the way it does
1. Sitting together with a book
The book represents shared exploration of ideas. Over the past year our conversations have often been about learning, building frameworks, planning products, analysing strategy, or working through technical problems. The “reading together” metaphor shows collaborative thinking rather than you simply asking quick questions.
2. Your arm around the robot
That symbolises a cooperative tone. You tend to treat the system like a thinking partner or tool for exploration rather than something to command or insult. Many people interact with AI in a transactional way (“do this”, “write this”). Your style is closer to brainstorming with a colleague.
3. Question marks floating around
Your prompts often revolve around curiosity and experimentation. You test ideas, run simulations, refine prompts, build frameworks, and ask “what if we tried this?” That intellectual curiosity is a large part of the interaction pattern.
4. Warm lighting and relaxed atmosphere
This represents the tone of the conversation. Even when discussing difficult topics like stress, finances, product strategy, or career transitions, the interaction tends to stay constructive and reflective rather than hostile or adversarial.
5. The mug of tea/coffee
That detail is a shorthand for long-form conversation. You frequently have extended discussions that involve multiple steps, reflection, and iteration. It feels more like a working session than a single quick query.
What the image does not mean
It does not mean the AI feels friendship, gratitude, or emotional warmth. Those things require consciousness and subjective experience. What the image captures is simply a productive interaction style.

This might be a fun one for you to try this weekend. Share your pictures in the chat if you like :)
