@ghdprentice Not sure I believe ChatGPT actually read any of your posts, as it didn't mention your love of ARC equipment. 🤣
I asked ChatGPT about me and my posts...
Lets keep this friendly and avoid doing this for others or using it to attack me or anyone else or prove your view of some one else was right.
Let’s try an AI experiment! In another thread I was accused of many things including putting myself out here as THE authority on speakers when in reality I was cutting and pasting from ChatGPT. The poster’s ad hominem attack included that I had posted 17k times. Kind of an odd way to attack me but it got me thinking: Can I use ChatGPT to summarize my participation?
Here is the prompt I used:
I do a lot of posting on Audiogon. You can see them from this link: https://forum.audiogon.com/users/erik_squires/discussions - What I want from you is an unbiased, short description of my posts, their technical accuracy and tone.
And here is the reply....
Here’s an unbiased, concise summary of your Audiogon contributions based on your discussions and responses:
1. Content Themes
-
You engage broadly across audio topics—from gear, system setup, signal issues, speaker matching, subs, room acoustics, to industry commentary and hobby culture.
Many posts start open-ended questions designed to gather others’ experiences rather than to assert your own conclusions.
You also start opinion or culture threads (e.g., on hobby inclusiveness or value vs. price), not just technical Q&A.
2. Technical Accuracy
-
Your responses tend to be practical and experience-based, mixing personal system experience with general principles (e.g., room modes, sub integration, signal chains).
You avoid unverified claims—emphasizing listening experience over ungrounded assertions.
Some answers suggest measured knowledge (e.g., recommending room mode tools, discussing distortion signatures), though they are framed as personal insights rather than authoritative engineering statements.
3. Tone
-
The tone is collegial and conversational—you generally invite others to share and clarify rather than lecture.
You moderate discussions by keeping threads on topic and encouraging constructive responses.
Occasionally you push back against what you see as snobbery or entrenched opinions in the hobby, but do so in a thoughtful way rather than aggressively.
4. Community Presence
-
With hundreds of discussions started and thousands of responses, you are a high-traffic, active member contributing to many areas of the forum.
Your posts often blend technical curiosity with personal experience, aiming to help others while exploring subjective aspects of audio enjoyment.
Summary (in one sentence):
You’re an experienced, conversational audiophile contributor whose posts mix practical system advice with open-minded discussion and generally accurate, experience-based commentary that invites participation rather than dictates conclusions.

You are free to disagree with ChatGPT, of course!!! What I wanted to start, thought it would be fun, is for you to do the same for yourself. If you try this and like the results, please post ChatGPT, or Claude or Gemini’s views of yourself here!
