Reader attention?
ChatGPT output is often so absurdly verbose it becomes tiring to try and make sense of the text (when the text makes sense in the first place). The effort we're willing to put into big swaths of text is already low, and I fear ChatGPT will only make it worse.
- axiom92 4y agoYou can make the output more/less verbose with the right prompt.
- falcolas 4y ago> with the right prompt Supposedly you can summon Anubis with the right prompt as well. But nobody does.
- axiom92 4y agoYeah I see your point. The fact that it (making responses concise) can be done doesn't mean people will necessarily do it. However, I can see a media outlet incorporating a set of "checklist" prompts in their publication process. Any GPT-N generated article will go through them before the article is pushed out. One of these checklist prompts can be about reducing verbosity.
