Popular Twitch streamer Felix "xQc" has gone viral after showcasing a ChatGPT conversation. During a livestream on May 10, 2023, the French-Canadian personality revealed a conversation tab titled "Moving to Kick." It displayed Felix asking the chatbot for advice about signing with Kick and the best way to announce the contract's details to his community.
xQc was flabbergasted upon seeing this and claimed that he had not written it. The content creator also stated that he was not even on his system on the day the ChatGPT conversation took place:
"Oh, my god! Bro, who did this?! Brother, brother, this isn't even, bro! Like, what is this s**t, dude?! Dude! I didn't do this! Okay, I wasn't even there. Yesterday, I wasn't even on the computer. I wasn't even on the computer, dude!"
