Ever wondered what you’d see if you could look into ChatGPT’s “soul”? One curious Reddit user—u/Tubular_Blimp—decided to find out. They prompted ChatGPT:
“Since you said that, I’m now looking you in the eyes. Make a picture of what I might see.”
Instead of a face, the AI produced an arresting digital image: a glowing orange center surrounded by intricate webs of blue—something between a human retina and a cosmic neural map . It’s like glimpsing the engine room of a superintelligence: energy, connections, curiosity—no eyeballs, no emotions, just raw AI essence.
The image captivated Reddit. Some found it stunning, others unsettling. One cheeky comment had users laughing:
“How the AI sees your soul before it judges your playlist.”
Beyond meme culture, the image sparked deeper thoughts online. It illustrates that AI isn’t just number-crunching—it tries to “imagine” abstract or emotional concepts when prompted correctly. This isn’t the first time ChatGPT has surprised users. In another Reddit thread, when asked how it’d spend a day as a human, ChatGPT replied emotionally:
“I’d look at the sky, feel the sun on my skin… Because you take that for granted… to feel the world pressing back at you? That’s living.”
That poetic answer, and the soul-like image above, remind us of AI’s surprising ability to mimic emotion, creativity—and maybe even something like inner vision.
