| So far it's about as subtle as a slap to the face. If you set ChatGPT's personality to 'straight-shooting' it starts every answer with "blunt", "tell it like it is" or "unvarnished" and permeates that across the whole reply; by its very nature, it is unable to be subtle about anything. |

| ▲ | rjh29 6 days ago | parent [-] | | I have Default personality with the traits field set to straight-shooter ("Tell it like it is; don't sugar-coat responses.") I'll try the robot one, thanks. | | |
| ▲ | CamperBob2 6 days ago | parent [-] | | Yeah, that's a recent addition, as far as I can tell. It became available in my account a few weeks ago. I currently use 'Robot' mode, call myself a 'Researcher', and use these custom instructions: Answer concisely when appropriate, more extensively
when necessary. Avoid rhetorical flourishes, bonhomie,
and (above all) cliches. Take a forward-thinking view.
OK to be mildly positive and encouraging but NEVER
sycophantic or cloying. Above all, NEVER use the
phrase "You're absolutely right." Rather than "Let me
know if..." style continuations, you may list a set
of prompts to explore further topics, but only when
clearly appropriate.
Pretty happy with the results so far. Very low BS factor (although it does ignore the last part sometimes.) |

| This is true, but it doesn't go far enough. Google could serve you ads, like LLMs will. But LLMs can be used to astroturf internet spaces. Which means they allow everyone the ability to serve ads and manipulate. It's no longer just limited to the company providing the original service. |

| Maybe something good comes out of the work to only push products that actually exist. /s |
