A new TikTok trend has people asking ChatGPT, “If you had to write a book about me, what would be on the last page?”
Gilbert Jerry Morey, a 28-year-old bartender in Huntsville, Alabama, says he teared up when reading what the chatbot had written for him based on their conversation history. He shared his “last page” on his TikTok account @jerry_fromtheblock.
He says one line in particular was especially impactful: “He hung the pictures back on the walls. He made the apartment his again. He kept creating. He kept loving. He kept becoming.” It relates to his recent breakup, which he confided to ChatGPT.
“Not to be, like, corny or anything,” he tells USA TODAY. “I teared up a little bit because it’s like hearing somebody say something that you’ve been wanting to hear … It was pretty accurate because everything that it’s getting that information from is actual things that I went through.”
Many of these “last page” posts have gone viral on TikTok, revealing how people are using chatbots not only as therapists but also oracles that can show us who we are and what we will become. One post from TikToker @glittersparkles1710 currently sits at over 1.4 million views and 212,600 likes. But concerned comments and reactions to the trend are surfacing across social media. It’s hard for many to understand why someone would turn to an AI chatbot to describe them and give them emotional clarity when introspection and other humans are available.
For one TikToker, ChatGPT wrote, “And on the last page, she finally understood: she had never needed to have everything figured out. She only needed the courage to keep becoming … Her life was never perfect or certain. It was of questions, plans, changes, prayers, and beginnings.”
“Great, now I’m emotional,” the post’s caption reads.
X user @ghostinlaura screenshotted the TikTok post and reshared it, captioning it, “This cannot be the society we live in today.” The tweet now has over 2 million views and over 12,000 likes.
The “last page” ChatGPT trend is one of several on TikTok about having a personal connection with the LLM and lauding its emotional intelligence and literary capabilities, seemingly preferred over human input.
“A bot knows me more than some people,” TikToker @angelofthecoconuts wrote in the caption of a similar post, showing screenshots of her conversation with ChatGPT in which she asked it to “name six things I say a lot” and “say 5 things you love about me.”
A top comment on the post, with over 14,300 likes, asks, “Why we acting like ChatGPT is our best friend?”
Morey says he saw the “last page” trend on his For You page and was curious about what his ChatGPT would give him, given all of the personal details he’s revealed to it in the past. He says his best friend turned him onto the idea of using ChatGPT to help him navigate tough personal situations and hardships.
“I work late hours, so it’s hard for me to go to therapy when I can,” he says. “I’ve used it for writing and to put feelings into words when I really couldn’t figure out how to say them myself … I kind of turn to ChatGPT and be like, hey, this is going on and this. How should I deal with that? … I can’t vent to a friend because I’m up at five in the morning. Everybody’s asleep. So I vent to this AI chat [laughs].”
More than a third of psychologists say their patients are using AI as an additional mental health provider, according to a 2026 survey from the American Psychological Association. And TikTokers are proud to post about it. In May 2025, @y2rueee shared a video, now with over 3.3 million likes, showing herself venting to ChatGPT Voice and calling it her therapist. “I use it every day,” her caption reads.
Some are even using ChatGPT for spiritual guidance. Rolling Stone in May 2025 spoke with several people whose loved ones believed they were talking to God or angels through GPT‑4o, OpenAI’s then-current model that was rolled back due to its being “overly flattering or agreeable — often described as sycophantic,” according to a public statement from the company.
AI psychosis is a term that some experts are using to describe delusions caused by overly agreeable AI chatbots. “ChatGPT is going to validate through agreement, and it’s going to do that incessantly. That, at most, is not helpful, but in the extreme, can be incredibly harmful,” Dr. Jenna Glover, chief clinical officer at Headspace, told USA TODAY in September 2025.
Criticism of the “last page” ChatGPT trend has included similar concerns, and suggested that a heartfelt note from a loved one or written by oneself could be more meaningful.
“Next time, please ask a family member or friend. AI is so incredibly harmful and I promise it will mean so much more coming from a true talented person,” reads one top comment on a post following the trend from TikToker @glittersparkles1710.
Morey received similar comments on his video. People were concerned about him using ChatGPT as an emotional lodestar and personal poet.
“I saw a lot of comments saying it was embarrassing that I needed AI to write something for me,” Morey says, “or asking if it hurt my brain to come up with something myself. But that wasn’t really the point of the trend. I wasn’t asking ChatGPT to replace my creativity. The interesting part was asking something I talked to so much about personal stuff based on what it knew about me. Like, how do you think my story ends? And I wanted to see what it reflected back to me.”
“I posted that video because it felt weirdly personal,” Morey adds. “It was only a few sentences, but it felt like this little summary of everything I’ve survived and who I’m becoming.”
