Ask HN: Why can't ChatGPT respond in plain English?

Dec 26, 2023 - news.ycombinator.com
The user discusses their experience with Bing AI, noting that it often includes unnecessary information in its responses, similar to the issue the original poster (OP) mentioned. They illustrate this with an example from the game Faster than Light, where they question the evasion chance when allocating reactor power points to different systems.

In the AI's response, the user highlights several phrases that they believe add no value to the answer. They argue that removing these phrases would not affect the helpfulness of the response. They believe this unnecessary fluff is what the OP was referring to in their complaint.

Key takeaways:

  • The user is discussing the issue of unnecessary fluff in AI responses, using Bing AI and a game-related query as an example.
  • In the game Faster than Light, power allocation to the engine system affects evasion chance, but other factors like pilot skill and autopilot system can also influence it.
  • Allocating reactor points to the energy system doesn't directly affect evasion chance, but can indirectly influence it by affecting overall ship system performance.
  • The user believes that certain parts of the AI's response, which they marked with double square brackets, do not add value and could be removed for a more concise and effective response.
