In recent weeks, many users have complained that ChatGPT’s new personality feels overly sycophantic and irritating<\/strong>. OpenAI\u2019s CEO, Sam Altman, has acknowledged the issue and promised that updates will be released throughout this week to correct the AI\u2019s behavior. Meanwhile, users looking for immediate solutions have found temporary ways to make ChatGPT responses more efficient and less “sweet.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OpenAI promises a fix, but temporary solutions exist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Altman announced via X that OpenAI will tone down ChatGPT\u2019s enthusiasm<\/strong>, aiming for a more neutral and effective assistant. However, while the official update arrives, Reddit users have shared two highly effective prompts to modify ChatGPT\u2019s personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One prompt, suggested by TedHoliday, requests the AI to “permanently stop commenting on the quality”<\/strong> of questions and instead focus purely on providing answers. This reduces unnecessary flattery and small talk, resulting in quicker, more straightforward responses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For users seeking even more drastic changes, the ‘Absolute Mode’ prompt created by MrJaxendale offers an intense alternative. This setting eliminates emojis, filler, hype, and soft conversation<\/strong> entirely, delivering blunt, minimalistic answers without any emotional engagement or unnecessary politeness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While OpenAI\u2019s official fixes are expected soon, these community-created prompts offer a practical way for users to reclaim a more direct and efficient AI experience<\/strong> right now. As OpenAI continues refining its models, having user-driven methods shows how adaptable AI interaction can truly be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
