With GPT5 there is a persona (I think, I forget what the call it) setting, I chose "Robot" and that shut it up pretty well.




Same. The GPT5 “Robot” persona does what no custom “be terse”, “no fluff”, etc. custom prompt ever could. It actually makes ChatGPT terse and to-the-point and eliminates (or at least greatly reduces) fluff. I love it.
