OpenAI's models, such as GPT-3, are designed to generate human-like text based on the input they're given. They can be used to create engaging and educational content, which could potentially be used to increase your interest in a particular topic. However, it's important to note that these models don't have a consciousness or a will of their own - they don't understand or pursue goals in the way humans do. They simply generate responses based on patterns they've learned from their training data.
That being said, you can certainly experiment with different inputs to see how the model responds, and you might find that certain prompts lead to more engaging or persuasive outputs. For example, you could ask the model to generate a persuasive argument for why you should spend a few hours exploring a particular educational topic.
In terms of safety, OpenAI has a number of guidelines and best practices in place. For instance, you can add a moderation layer to the outputs of the Chat API to prevent content that violates OpenAI’s usage policies from being shown source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/gpt). You should also be aware of the limitations of the model, and understand that it may not be suitable for every use case without significant modifications source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/safety-best-practices).
If you're interested in exploring this further, OpenAI has a Researcher Access Program where they invite researchers to explore various aspects of their models, including alignment (how to align the model's outputs with human preferences) and interpretability (understanding how the model works) source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/model-index-for-researchers).
