You're absolutely right! Americans are a bit weird like that, most people around the world would be perfectly okay with short and to-the-point answers. Especially if those answers are coming from a machine that's just giving its best imitation of a stochastic hallucinating parrot.

Claude is very "American", just try asking it to use English English spelling instead of American English spelling; it lasts about 3~6 sentences before it goes back. Also there is only American English in the UI (like the spell checker, et al), in Spanish you get a choice of dialects, but not English.

		In contrast, o3 seems to be considerably more British - and it doesn't suck up as much in its responses. I thought these were just independent properties of the model, but now that you mention it, could the disinclination to fawn so much be related to its less American style?

Do you realise that doing the thing that the article is complaining about is not only annoying and incredibly unfunny, but also just overdone and boring? Have one original thought in your life.

You're absolutely right! I agree with everything you said but didn't want to put in effort to right a funny, witty follow up!

Wow, this is really interesting. I had no idea Japan, for example, had such a focus on blunt, direct communication. Can you share your clearly extensive research in this area so I can read up on this?
