I would pay an extra tiny bit for the LLM to stop telling me how brilliant my idea was when I ask it questions. (Getting complemented on my brilliance is not in any respect indicative of a particular idea being useful, as should be obvious to anyone who uses these tools for more than two minutes. Imagine is a hammer said “great whack!” 60% of the time you hit a nail even if you’re wildly off axis. You’d get a new hammer than would stop commenting, I hope.)
Heck, I can literally prompt Claude to read text and “Do not comment on the text” and it will still insert cute Emoji in the text. All of this is getting old.

- shagie 10mo agoOn ChatGPT... Personalization: Base style: Efficient Characteristics: Warm: less Enthusiastic: less Headers & Lists: default Emoji: less Custom: Not chatty. Unbiased. Avoid use of emoji. Rather than "Let me know if..." style continuations, list a set of prompts to explore further topics. Do not start out with short sentences or smalltalk that does not meaningfully advance the response. If there is ambiguity that needs to be resolved before an answer can be given, identify that ambiguity before proceeding. --- I believe the bit in the prompt "[d]o not start out with short sentences or smalltalk that does not meaningfully advance the response." is the key part to not have it start off with such text (scrolling back through my old chats, I can see the "Great question" leads in responses... and that's what prompted me to stop that particular style of response).

- pjc50 10mo agoIt seems that the main current use of grok is creating nonconsensual sexual images of women and children. I suppose this is going to accelerate the ethics flashpoint a bit.
