I haven't tried this, but I can say that LLM's are very good at picking up patterns. If you tell it that it's wrong a few times in a row, it will learn the pattern and go into "I am repeatedly wrong" mode. Perhaps even making mistakes "on purpose" to continue the pattern.

Amusingly, humans are known to do exactly that. Including the "mistakes on purpose", even though they might not realize that they're doing it.
