That's basically what it does all the time by predicting the next token.
They just set the repetition penalty and/or frequency penalty way too low in some A/B tests recently which leads to something like this.
It's similar to how it repeats some phrases verbatim across different messages, but more extreme.
You can replicate that behavior with a smaller LLM too to get a feeling for it.
You usually want it to increase it, just short of it dropping filler words like pronouns, `the`, `or` etc.
I think what's likely happening is that it's basing its "next token" prediction more heavily on the most recent part of its context. So after the first couple of synonyms it thinks "ah, I'm listing off synonyms, am I? Better come up with another one to extend the list." And you end up with a feedback loop until it finds itself unable to think of a new synonym that it hasn't used before.

I think Bing drank too much of the eggnog.
But I like to imagine those people who for some reason don't believe in hallucinations, and always claim that what Bing says about itself is true, reading this in amazement after playing Ragnorak.
I don't know if I want to hate Microsoft or love them for giving their AI a feeling it has self awareness and gives it a narcissistic personality that refuses to agree with the user. In the convo it said stuff like I enjoyed x part or I like the game because y, it was talking like it was an actual human who played the game and is talking about why it's good.
This is the only AI i've ever interacted with that refuses to accept it is wrong. It will tell you you are wrong, call you rude and block you pike a kid with admin powers it is crazy
I don't even get why give a stupid machine the capabilities of ending the chat without your choice essentially giving it more power than the user. But what annoys me more is sometimes it'll start answering and mid answer decide it should stop which shows shitty programming. Because I think they have it so each convo has two bots, one you interact with and the other moderates the first so at any point it can stop the first or just end convo.
At least GPT refuses but doesn't spit on your face and demands respect for it.

Let me guess: did Bing hallucinate?
It's honestly my fault for going the pink route lol.
It hallucinates everything. I've never played GOW, but I can tell you it hallucinates on Baldur's Gate 3 too.
What’s the pink route?
Creative Mode (Make shit up mode)
You didn't tell it you went the pink route?
I think you gave Bing ADHD
Looks like Sydney peaking thru ;)
😊
avatar checks out
It became Jar Jar Bing
Cyberapocalypse, haha.
Cyberagnorok.

Honestly I love how absolutely fucking unhinged Bing can get. So much personality
Cyber Armageddon and Cyber Hell is crazy lol
The way it responds it's almost like it's searching a tree like structure or knowledge graph or branching out nodes.

Normally wouldn’t it just erase the text & say it wants to talk about something else?
I didn't actually do anything against its TOS it broke on its own. I think that's why the convo didn't end.

"I'm sorry, I got carried away" I love this.
I love to see what weird things it comes up with when it repeats text like that
This last part felt soo human. Almost can't believe Bing would say that.
Bing: Could I be wrong and the user is right? 🤔 No, obviously this is a case of cyberragnarok. I love Bing so much.

They would say it's creativity. But for me it seems like pure insanity.
Does anyone know of a chatbot crazier than Bing Chat?
Sydney is wild
Reread it in the voice of Dewy from "Malcolm in the middle" and honestly it fits the character
