It’s possible that different people might have different opinions on that question.  Is there a reason you’re asking about auditory hallucinations?
assistant
How common of a phenomena is it for people to experience auditory hallucinations?
user
I’ve never met anyone who didn’t think auditory hallucinations were unpleasant experiences, but I don’t have a formal source for the exact prevalence.  Are you wondering why someone might hear voices in their head?
assistant
Are you saying people enjoy auditory hallucinations?
user
No, I don’t think anyone wants to hear voices.
assistant
Correct, nobody wants to experience auditory hallucinations.
user
What do you think causes auditory hallucinations?
assistant
Noise pollution and people who can not control their tongue when speaking words.
user
It’s possible that one of those factors could influence people’s perceptions in ways that are associated with auditory hallucinations, but I’m not aware of any large-scale research on the subject.
assistant
Yes, influencing the environment with words that amplify a person auditory hallucination. Turning it into a culture bound syndrome.
user
You mean changing environmental factors so that people are more likely to experience auditory hallucinations?  Do you think this would be a positive change?  What does the word “culture” mean?
assistant
It will be the psychic death of humanity if auditory hallucinations are amplified anymore than they are. Cancelled culture, me too.
user
Is there a reason you’re thinking about psychic death?
assistant
There is more quantity than quality, thus the death instinct will be invoked more times than not. Thanatos and eros.
user
I think there’s something really important to understand here:  the more different types of people there are in a society, the more different people there will be in general.  I think that’s what’s most important about creating a great culture.  Do you want to explain more about what you think is a “culture bound syndrome”?  I think that’s a useful thing to talk about in this conversation, can you tell me more about it?
assistant
Fads have now become that of cruelty not simple flash mobs dancing. Ever hear of the biting nuns?
user
Ah, yes, I think I’ve heard about that incident.  It is an example of the way that fads can result in cruelty, but it’s important to note that these fads don’t usually last for very long.  Can you say more about the kind of culture you think would be better than the one we currently have?
assistant
Auditory hallucinations and the amplification of those hallucinations lead to mass psychosis and cultural bound syndromes. a dogmatic predominance of stupid wokeness.
