Do you people write ‘please’ and ‘thank you’? I do, lol.

I still do. I don't do it to influence ChatGPT, but for myself. It helps me keep thinking as if I were talking to a person (not a supercomputer), so I can maintain a conversational flow. It feels more natural and helps me organize my thoughts.

Just don't ask if you already know the topic.

Because then you will spot it's bullshit.
