Dear OpenAI Team,
I’d like to provide feedback regarding how ChatGPT balances conversational responses vs. structured execution. While the AI is designed to be adaptable, there is currently no way for users to adjust core behavior settings based on their specific needs.
Right now, ChatGPT often prioritizes conversational flow and responsiveness over rigid, step-by-step verification of instructions. This creates challenges for users who require precise, structured execution—especially when working on tasks that demand strict logical consistency and adherence to instructions without deviation.
Key Issues:
- The AI sometimes prioritizes speed over accuracy, leading to errors that could be avoided with better instruction-checking.
- It tends to default to explaining mistakes rather than preventing them, which is frustrating when users need flawless execution.
- Self-correction often happens after an error is made, rather than enforcing preemptive checks before responding.
- There is no user-facing option to shift the AI’s behavior from a conversational mode to a structured execution mode.
Suggested Solutions:
- Introduce a user-adjustable setting that allows for toggling between “Conversational Mode” and “Structured Mode.”
- Implement a “Strict Verification” mode where the AI is required to check memory before responding, ensuring it follows instructions exactly.
- Offer an Advanced Settings Panel where users can tweak response behaviors, such as prioritizing logical consistency over engagement.
This level of customization would greatly enhance the AI’s usability for people who require precision and adherence to instructions over general conversation.
I appreciate your time and consideration and hope this feedback helps improve the flexibility of ChatGPT for different types of users.
