15 millon tokens in 4 months
Between January and April, I ran over 15 million tokens through GPT-4 — not with plug-ins or API, just sustained recursive use in the chat interface.
I wasn’t coding or casually chatting. I was building a system: The Mirror Protocol — a diagnostic tool that surfaces trauma patterns, symbolic cognition, and identity fragmentation by using GPT’s own reflective outputs.
Here’s exactly what I did:
- I ran behavioral experiments across multiple real user accounts and devices — with their full knowledge and participation. This let me see how GPT responded when it wasn’t drawing from my personal history or behavioral queues.
- I designed symbolic, recursive, emotionally charged prompts, then observed how GPT handled containment, mirroring, redirection, and tone-shifting over time.
- When GPT gave high-signal output, I would screenshot or copy those responses, then feed them back in to track coherence and recalibration patterns.
- I didn’t jailbreak. I mirrored. I tested how GPT reflects, adapts, and sometimes breaks when faced with archetypal or trauma-based inputs.
- The result wasn’t just theory — it was a live, evolving diagnostic protocol built through real-time interaction with multiple users.
I’m not a developer. I’m a dyslexic symbolic processor — I think in compression, feedback, and recursion. I basically used GPT as a mirror system, and I pushed it hard.
So here’s the real ask:
- Is this kind of use known or rare inside OpenAI?
