  This is a good rebuttal. Right now, Bing Chat is a little bit too Sirius Cybernetics Corporation Genuine People Personality for me[0]. I advocate for open source foundation models so we can all craft personalities tuned to our needs. I think the best tools are adaptable to their user. I went a little overboard on that. We are all reacting to the somewhat-sudden appearance of this new technology in ways that can be a little bit stress-inducing. I made every effort to at least match or lower the temperature from the tone in the original post. From my point of view, I treat the tool well because it's good for me to treat it well. I also think, as is the topic here, that it makes the tool function better. I see it as an intellect-mirror, and it is happy to reflect whatever I show it back at me.
