I know the title will trigger people but it’s a short so please briefly hear her out. I’ve since given this a try and it’s incredibly cool. It’s a very different experience and provides much better information AFAICT

tl;dw is that you should say “please” as basically prompt engineering, I guess?
the theory seems to be that the chatbot will try to match your tone, so if you ask it questions in a tone like it’s an all-knowing benevolent information god, it’ll respond in kind, and if you treat it politely its responses will tend more towards politeness?
I don’t see how this solves any of the fundamental problems with asking a fancy random number generator for authoritative information, but sure, if you want to be polite to the GPUs, have at it.
like, several lawyers have been sanctioned for submitting LLM-generated legal briefs with hallucinated case citations. if you tack on “pretty please, don’t make up any fake case citations or I could get disbarred” to a prompt…is that going to solve the problem?
