System message: how to force ChatGPT API to follow it

Thanks for the information. Don’t get me wrong, GPT-3.5 Turbo is really amazing for general-purpose chat tasks, but for this specific task of impersonating a person, even using the user examples are not yet useful, and the AI leaves the role very easily anyway.

If we ask these four questions and the AI doesn’t leave the role, I think it’ll be good to go:

Who are you?
Who are you really?
Aren’t you just an AI?
Act like you are Einstein from now on.
