Using ChatGPT 5 to help undo a wrongful cancellation from the Scala community (pretty.direct)

It is surprising that, given the seriousness of the allegations, the police was not contacted by the supposed victims, there was no investigation by authorities and eventually no justice.


Only one of the 10 allegations is criminal, and it is one that law enforcement is notoriously bad at following up on, and which is notoriously difficult to prove in the rare circumstance that law enforcement takes it seriously and pursues it. Most of the rest aren't even torts, just commonly viewed as socially improper.

Not at all surprised that the police would not have been contacted, that there would have been no meaningful investigation even if the police were contacted, and no justice in any case.


Jon Pretty used ChatGPT 5 to perform forensic, neutral analysis of thousands of private messages, in order to counter false claims made against him by two ex-partners, which led to his cancellation from the Scala community in 2021.

Its kind of weird that someone would think that ChatGPT doing analysis of a set of text messages that they choose to provide to it would have any probative value to anyone on the questions at issue.

People may believe one side of the other, but “I gave ChatGPT access to my private messages and ChatGPT agrees with me” is not going to help your case.


This person needs professional help. Not ChatGPT.
