Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
When using ChatGPT, I was so annoyed from it constantly saying "Great question", "you're absolutely right", "That's a great idea" and similar things, acting like everything I say was so smart until I confronted it and told it to stop (see the image, although it's in German):
It then saved this memory:
Since then I didn't have such issues anymore.
Du hast natürlich recht: Das ist sehr nervig. Vielen Dank für deinen ehrlichen Kommentar!
Das war halt wirklich einfach die initiale Antwort 😭
I did the same thing. I also asked it to stop coming off as so certain about things after I discovered how wrong it is on some topics. It now presents confidence levels, but who knows if that's accurate. At least it reminds me to verify.
I have the confidence level turned down too but lately it doubles down on itself.
The usual conversation....
VI: "You could do this."
Me: "That won't work because XYZ."
VI: "No, you can definitely do that. XYZ has nothing to do with it."
Me: pastes it's own suggestion in.
VI: "Almost, but that won't work because of XYZ."
It's most notorious one is adding an s to Table.AddColumn() then proceeding to make a full snippet around this newly made up function. This specific example is so regular it's become a joke at work for giving someone an unhelp response,
"What do you want to do for lunch today?"
"Have you tried table add columns?"
Ohhh, hiii again!
I would love to have yes man as my personal assistant
Yes Man would never refuse to help you commit tax fraud.

And when GPT-5 stops doing this, all of a sudden it's a bug and they want 4o back.
You’re absolutely right!
You’re absolutely right!
GPT 5 was not liked because it didn't do that.
You're absolutely right!
