Chatlighting

The act of deliberately prompting, steering, or reframing questions to an AI (especially ChatGPT) in order to elicit a desired answer, validation, or confirmation—often by selectively presenting information, omitting context, or repeatedly rephrasing until the response aligns with one’s preferred outcome.

He was clearly chatlighting the model until it agreed with his argument.
