I would like to know how much context is remaining. Claude code gives a % remaining when it is close to exhaustion which is nice, but I'd like to always see it. Also, I wish it was possible for the models to leverage local machine to increase/augment its context. Also, one observation is that Claude.ai (the web UI) gets REALLY slow as the conversation gets longer. I'm on a M1 Pro 32gb MacbookPro, and it lags as I typ…
Its existence is irritating. Could we stop it from existing?
Give us an easy way to imitate our writing voice / style.
By default, it writes like a teenager. Too verbose. Tighten the drafting.
Top priority should be conquering hallucinations. Funny enough, I asked it and it gave a good output: Good question — here's a direct and honest take on what could use improvement in ChatGPT (including me, GPT-4o): --- ### *What I Dislike / What Needs Improving* #### 1. *Over-Cautiousness & Vague Responses* * Sometimes I avoid giving direct or nuanced answers, especially on sensitive topics (ethics, health, legal iss…
#1 problem is how sycophantic they are. I in fact want the exact opposite sort of interaction, where they push back against my ideas and actively try to correct and improve my thinking. Too often I am misled into giant waste of time because they have this need to please coded in to their default response structure. You can say things like "you are a robot, you have no emotions, don't try to act human", but the output…
For me it's been the opposite. They take on a condescending tone sometimes and sometimes they sound too salesy and trump up their suggestions
Real humans have a spectrum of assuredness that naturally comes across in the conversation. With an LLM it's too easy to get drawn deep into the weeds. For example, I may propose that I use a generalized framework to approach a certain problem. In a real conversation, this may just be part of the creative process, and with time the thoughts may shift back to the actual hard data (and perhaps iterate on the framework), but with an LLM, too often it will blindly build onto the framework without ever questioning it. Of course it's possible to spur this action by prompting it, but the natural progression of ideas can be lost in these conversations, and sometimes I come out 15 minutes later feeling like maybe I just took half a step backwards despite talking about what seemed at the time like great ideas.
Earlier quoted context omitted.

Yes, I agree with that as well. Real humans have a spectrum of assuredness that naturally comes across in the conversation. With an LLM it's too easy to get drawn deep into the weeds.

In a real conversation, this may just be part of the creative process, and with time the thoughts may shift back to the actual hard data (and p…
What can you do?
“Good question! I can do x, y, z…”
Do that.
“…”
“…”
“…”
“Sorry I can’t do this for you because blah blah blah”
