Ask HN: Do you "Enable no talk mode?"

2 pointsby 1h ago

After spending years reading mostly human generated content on the internet for years, and treasuring the efforts spent absorbing content, the latest fad of llm's spitting out text like there was no tomorrow has drastically shifted my tolerance for content.

Is anyone else slapping up a "ENABLE NO TALKING MODE" before their prompts to ensure that the response coming back is straight to the point and factual?

Sadly I can't convince claude on the desktop app to follow this rule continuously but it's an easy manual prompt starter..

Any other tricks that may be applied to keep chatter and tokens down?

A quiet thread, for now.Start the conversation on HN ↗
