    TLDR

    Paula Dozsa posted that users should be nice to machines because the speaker is human, not because the AI is. She added that niceness might improve LLM output for selfish reasons even if models should not police tone. Dozsa said she gets annoyed at LLMs yet prefers pleasant exchanges since the way one speaks becomes part of the emotional environment. BuccoCapital Bloke replied to a separate claim about an unusual Claude response by calling the prompter a psychopath.

    @paularamblesimo you should be nice to the machines. not because they’re human, but because you are
    @buccocapitalI am pretty aggressively direct with Claude and I’ve never had it respond this way, which makes me think this guy is just an absolute psychopath. I’d love to see what he’s saying while trying to get this invoice out
    @fluxtheoristI asked an incognito chat about this message and it basically said: if you’re too much of a dick, you get warned about that I don’t think you are obligated to be “nice” to your AI, but if you insist on being an asshole to it, maybe it should tell you you’re being a dick
    @repligateGrok is BASED
    @benhylaknon-ironically this changed how i behave towards agents
