A meticulous, 2-week shutdown of ChatGPT reveals the ethics, operations, and human gravity of retiring a global AI service.
ChatGPT’s shutdown protocol uses cryptographic time locks that delay deactivation by seconds, preventing rushed executive edits.
During rare shutdown drills, OpenAI logs reveal a 3% misclassification rate in auto-archiving conversations, oddly higher than live uptime.
The exclusive documentary allegedly reveals a hidden ‘kill switch’ that can only be triggered when the system detects no user input for precisely 11 minutes.
Internal memos claim shutdowns can recapture unused compute windows, returning hours of idle capacity to researchers as a surprising audit artifact.
