ChatGPT Improvement Report

I have used ChatGPT extensively over the years and explored multiple AI tools. Based on long-term observation, the following improvements could significantly enhance user experience and engagement:

Problem 1: Related Questions Usability

ChatGPT suggests related questions, but they are not clickable. Users must manually copy them, increasing effort.

Solution:

Make suggested questions directly clickable (like Wikipedia internal links), enabling one-tap interaction instead of copy-paste.

Problem 2: Long Chat Navigation

Users often spend 20+ minutes per session. Conversations become lengthy, making it difficult to revisit earlier queries without excessive scrolling.

Solution:

Introduce a dual-panel system:

Main chat (centre)

Secondary side chat (right panel) for exploring subtopics without disrupting the main flow

Problem 3: One-Mode-Fits-All Limitation

Different users (school students, high school students, professionals) have distinct needs, but ChatGPT provides similar response styles.

Solution:

Introduce selectable modes:

Alpha: Very concise answers (for school-level tasks)

Beta: Detailed explanations (for high school learning)

Gamma: Direct, professional-level responses (for research/work)

Problem 4: Over-verbosity & “Humanised” Style

Responses sometimes feel unnecessarily wordy or indirect, reducing efficiency for serious users.

Solution:

Allow stricter control over response style—more precise, less conversational when needed.

NOTE:

The main problem which I observe in ChatGPT is its response pattern.

Hey @Prince_Shah! Thanks for laying this out clearly. A few of these points line up with feedback others have shared too, especially around side chats/inline mini-chats, better long-chat navigation, and more control over how detailed or direct ChatGPT responses are.

The education/work mode idea is also helpful. Being able to switch between a concise school-level mode, a more detailed learning mode, and a direct professional mode could make ChatGPT feel better matched to the user’s context instead of using one response style for everyone.

For now, the closest workaround is using Custom Instructions, Projects, or a custom GPT with instructions like “keep answers concise,” “explain step by step for learning,” or “answer in a professional research style.” This article has more info on Custom Instructions: ChatGPT Custom Instructions

I can’t share a timeline right now, but I’ll pass this feedback along internally.
