I still want to read a ChatGPT text that doesn't look stupidly verbose
- chpatrick 3y agoWhy don't you ask it not to be?
- coffeebeqn 3y agoThe default style really annoys me with its verbosity and overuse of numbered lists. Describing a tone and length of responses and anything else you want - think step by step, first principals, show don’t tell - all work pretty well. You can even ask it to only reply with a Boolean true or false - which certainly doesn’t play to its strengths
- satuke 3y agoActually, that's a by-product of RLHF. A base model is usually not that verbose.
- JoshTko 3y agoUse custom instructions. I use "Answers should be very concise by default. Never provide disclosures. Answers should get to the point immediately." and get super concise answers. If I want more detail I just follow up with can you expand on X.

- xcv123 3y agoFollow up with the prompt "rewrite that so that it doesn't look stupidly verbose" and it will do exactly as requested.
- WillPostForFood 3y agoGive this GPT called Briefly a try. Responses come back as bullet point lists.I prefer more verbose, but interesting to see this in contrast. https://chat.openai.com/g/g-LNsEQH5rz-briefly https://chat.openai.com/g/g-LNsEQH5rz-briefly
