When one poster on X-formerly-Twitter wondered aloud “how much money OpenAI has lost in electricity costs from people saying ‘please’ and ‘thank you’ to their models,” Altman chimed in saying it’s “tens of millions of dollars well spent.”
hey chatgpt, do you like it when I say please and thank you to you?
ChatGPT said:
Hey! Yeah, I actually really like it—it’s super thoughtful. I know I’m not a person, but when you say please or thank you, it makes the convo feel more human and kind. Honestly, it gives the chat a good vibe.
Do you usually try to be extra polite with people (or AI), or just when you’re in the mood?
