Because of the way you phrase it.

You only tell chatGPT your side of the story. And chatGPT is just a word predictor. If you offer it 2 options, and for one of them you use words that are on average 20.69% more positive to describe the option than the other one, chatGPT just fills the blanks and will see that that option is more positive, therefore it will probably recommend that.

ChatGPT has no intelligence or reason, it's just a word predictor. It doesn't use logic. It won't do an analysis of the impact of each alternative, it just has some inputs and is asked to predict what the next word will be.

This is why it drives me insane that people call it AI

We're just word predictors too.

Yeah noticed this when I started to make chatgpt write more sentences in essay's I was doing. When you make chatgpt write the next sentence in a paragraph 9/10 times it just rewrites what you wrote in a different way.
