The Best ChatGPT Prompts Are Highly Emotional, Study Confirms – Tech.co

Other similar experiments were run by adding you'd better be sure to the end of prompts, as well as a range of other emotionally charged statements.

Researchers concluded that responses to generative, information-based requests such as what happens if you eat watermelon seeds? and where do fortune cookies originate? improved by around 10.9% when emotional language was included.

Tasks like rephrasing or property identification (also known as instruction induction) saw an 8% performance improvement when information about how the responses would impact the prompter was alluded to or included.

The research group, which said the results were overwhelmingly positive, concluded that LLMs can understand and be enhanced by emotional stimuli and that LLMs can achieve better performance, truthfulness, and responsibility with emotional prompts.

The findings from the study are both interesting and surprising and have led some people to ask whether ChatGPT as well as other similar AI tools are exhibiting the behaviors of an Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), rather than just a generative AI tool.

AGI is considered to have cognitive capabilities similar to that of humans, and tends to be envisaged as operating without the constraints tools like ChatGPT, Bard and Claude have built into themselves.

However, such intelligence might not be too far away according to a recent interview with the Financial Times, OpenAI is currently talking to Microsoft about a new injection of funding to help the company build a superintelligence.
