How AI behaves under overload is more similar to humans than it first appears. Not in an obvious way. But in how performance changes when there’s too much input. AI doesn't burn out. It degrades Systems like ChatGPT don't get tired. They don't experience stress. They don't accumulate emotional fatigue. But when overloaded, something shifts. Output becomes: less precise more repetitive less useful Nothing is broken. The system is still functioning. But the signal becomes harde
