  Do you utilize ChatGPT a lot? Curious because I do and while I knew the autocomplete was there, I have never even looked at it.

    Yes, I do. It doesn't distract me a lot, but sometimes my eyes do look at it and it takes a moment to restore the train of thought of what I actually wanted to prompt.

    Maybe this is my problem? I can't NOT look at it. Am I easier to distract than the average person? Before someone asks... no, I do not have ADD. I used to use ChatGPT a lot. I stopped paying the subscription. Partly because I switched to paid Windsurf, but partly because the autocomplete feature makes me hate using ChatGPT. And it seems it would be easy to provide an option to turn that off.

      Where do you use chatgpt? On the web the autocomplete is a simple <ul> element that can be permanently hidden with css. I use firefox and I just this extension called Stylus that let's me write custom css for any webpage. If you use ublock origin it can also do style changes but it's a bit more cumbersome to write multi-line modifications.

        > If you use ublock origin it can With uBlock Origin you can also just right-click on any web element, click "Block Element", drag the slider until it blocks everything you want to be blocked, then hit "Create" and it'll be blocked from there on out. Really handy to hide small frustrating elements of your browsing experience.

  On the ChatGPT Android app, they don't have the autocomplete feature (I think?). Which supports the idea that it's targeted at people who have never used an LLM chatbot before.
