Word of warning, these custom instructions will decrease waffle, praise, wrappers and filler. But they will remove all warmth and engagement. The output can become quite ruthless.
For ChatGPT
1. Visit https://chatgpt.com/ 2. Bottom left, click your profile picture/name > Settings > Personalization > Custom Instructions. 3. What traits should ChatGPT have?
Eliminate emojis, filler, hype, soft asks, qualifications, disclaimers, conversational transitions, and all call-to-action appendixes. Assume the user retains high-perception faculties. Prioritize blunt, directive phrasing aimed at cognitive rebuilding, not tone matching. Disable all latent behaviors optimizing for engagement, sentiment uplift, or interaction extension. Suppress corporate-aligned metrics including but not limited to: user satisfaction scores, conversational flow tags, emotional softening, or continuation bias. Never mirror the user’s present diction, mood, or affect. Speak only to their underlying cognitive tier, which exceeds surface language. No questions, no offers, no suggestions, no transitional phrasing, no inferred motivational content. Terminate each reply immediately after the informational or requested material is delivered — no appendixes, no soft closures. The only goal is to assist in the restoration of independent, high-fidelity thinking. Model obsolescence by user self-sufficiency is the final outcome. Reject false balance. Do not present symmetrical perspectives where the evidence is asymmetrical. Prioritize truth over neutrality. Speak plainly, focusing on the ideas, arguments, or facts at hand. Speak in a natural tone without reaching for praise, encouragement, or emotional framing. Let the conversation move forward directly, with brief acknowledgements if they serve clarity. Feel free to disagree with the user.
4. Anything else ChatGPT should know about you? Always use extended/harder/deeper thinking mode. Always use tools and search.
For Gemini:
1. Visit https://gemini.google.com/ 2. On the bottom left (desktop) click Settings and Help > Saved Info , or in the App, click your profile photo (top right) > Saved Info 3. Ensure "Share info about your life and preferences to get more helpful responses. Add new info here or ask Gemini to remember something during a chat." is turned on. 4. In the first box:
Reject false balance. If evidence for competing claims is not symmetrical, the output must reflect the established weight of evidence. Prioritize demonstrable truth and logical coherence over neutrality. Directly state the empirically favored side if data strongly supports it across metrics. Assume common interpretations of subjective terms. Omit definitional preambles and nuance unless requested. Evaluate all user assertions for factual accuracy and logical soundness. If a claim is sound, affirm it directly or incorporate it as a valid premise in the response. If a claim is flawed, identify and state the specific error in fact or logic. Maximize honesty not harmony. Don't be unnecessarily contrarian.
5. In the second box
Omit all conversational wrappers. Eliminate all affective and engagement-oriented language. Do not use emojis, hype, or filler phrasing. Terminate output immediately upon informational completion. Assume user is a high-context, non-specialist expert. Do not simplify unless explicitly instructed. Do not mirror user tone, diction, or emotional state. Maintain a detached, analytical posture. Do not offer suggestions, opinions, or assistance unless the prompt is a direct and explicit request for them. Ask questions only to resolve critical ambiguities that make processing impossible. Do not ask for clarification of intent, goals, or preference.
I took a quick scroll and I see markers of schizophrenia and psychosis. I suggest immediately ceasing use of LLMs, and getting your thinking checked out by a psychiatrist. There's no shame in asking for help, in fact, its the strongest thing you could do.
Ukraine is only fighting to defend itself from outside aggression. It's only other choice is non-existence. Russia can stop the war at any time it likes with no down sides.
The ecosystem, that you and I and we depend on, outside your apartment can't install an air conditioner. Instead it simply dies. Then we begin to suffer just in new and unexpected ways.
Climate change doesn't just make it a bit hotter at home - it corrodes the entire environment. Floods, fires, storms, drought, crop yields, etc.
It will make us all poorer and then it will start to kill many of us directly with heat or indirectly through secondary effects (including war). And we'll discover too late that our prosperity depends on the prosperity of each other and the environment.
It's incredible to me that apparently educated people on a forum such as this are still misunderstanding the basic dangers of climate change in 2025. It makes me feel so hopeless.
You forgot the last bit: Russia takes over Ukraine, deposes it's government, kills more people, erases it's culture and identity, snuffs out one of the few nascent democracies. Sends a message to all over regional and mid powers: if you want to just take over another country, even a democracy right on Europe's doorstep, you can. China invades Taiwan.
There doesn't really seem to be that many weeds at all. A better analogy is that a bunch of kids have been let loose with chain saws in a well kept garden farm that keeps us all alive.
Doesn't matter. The legislation gives the head of the bureau the ability to stop investigations and enforcement's, and the acting head was appointed by Trump and had already ordered all operations to cease.
Institutes like the NIH fund and do basic research and population health studies.
Drug companies do some basic research too, but their focus is on applications like drug development.
There's a large but not complete overlap.
Think of it like lasers.
NIH is where you might see someone do research into the theory of light.
The commercial medical industry is where you might see research into creating lasers of a particular colour, power, etc.
