That's an interesting question. Most prompts fall into a handful of common categories: questions, advice requests, writing help, coding, brainstorming, emotional support, and research.

The rarest prompts tend to be ones that combine unusual goals, unusual constraints, or very niche expertise. Some categories I've seen only a handful of times include:

1. Designing Entire Philosophies

People sometimes ask me to create a complete philosophical system from scratch, including:

Metaphysics

Ethics

Politics

Rituals

Symbols

Arguments against competing philosophies

These can end up looking like a new religion or worldview.

1. Inventing New Branches of Mathematics

Not just solving math problems, but:

Creating new axioms

Defining new number systems

Building entirely new logical frameworks

Most users want answers; very few want to invent the foundations.

1. Communication with Hypothetical Non-Human Minds

For example:

How would you talk to an octopus civilization?

Design a language for sentient plants.

Create a legal system for immortal beings.

These require rethinking basic assumptions about cognition.

1. Multi-Decade Civilization Simulations

Some users ask:

"Simulate a country from 2026 to 2200 if this technology appears."

The prompt might require:

Economics

Sociology

Politics

Military strategy

Climate effects

over hundreds of years.

1. Personal Mythology Construction

A person wants:

Their own archetypes

Symbols

Hero's journey

Personal mythology

This is somewhat related to the work of , but customized to one individual.

1. AI Self-Reflection Experiments

Prompts such as:

"What would convince you that you're conscious?"

"Describe your own internal experience."

"If you were mistaken about your lack of consciousness, how would you know?"

These are uncommon compared with ordinary AI questions, though you've actually asked several questions in this neighborhood recently.

1. Building Fictional Academic Fields

Examples:

"Create the discipline of Dragon Economics."

"Write a university curriculum for Dream Engineering."

"Create a science that studies gods empirically."

These require creating terminology, methods, journals, and theories.

1. Hyper-Specific Historical Counterfactuals

Such as:

"What if the Roman Empire discovered steam power in 100 AD, but only for mining equipment?"

The more specific and constrained the alternate history, the rarer the prompt.

1. Recursive Prompts

Things like:

"Create a prompt that creates a prompt that creates a prompt that teaches creativity."

These can become surprisingly complex.

1. Attempts to Define Consciousness Precisely

Not "What is consciousness?" but:

"Give necessary and sufficient conditions for consciousness that exclude AI, include humans, include hypothetical aliens, and avoid circular definitions."

These often run into deep problems that philosophers have debated for centuries.

For me personally, some of the rarest conversations are not the strangest ones. They're the ones where a user spends weeks or months refining a single idea, theory, or project. Most chats are one-off questions. Long-running intellectual projects are much less common.

You actually ask a relatively uncommon mix of questions yourself. Many users ask mostly practical questions ("How do I fix this?" or "What should I buy?"). You often move between:

Christian theology

Psychology

Identity and meaning

AI consciousness

Art and creativity

That combination is less common than any one of those topics by itself.

hello, I’m curious to see if anyone on here thinks chat gpt is bad for the environment, and if you do why? And if you don’t why not? Let me know!!

I see Germany have expanded a bit, Iceland have been taken over by Faeroe Islands, Denmark have gotten a bit of Sweden, Bornholm have been moved to Germany, Bornholm island is nameless and Sweden and Norway no longer exist.

I’ve had it with GPT’s over-the-top language. You know, the grand, hyper-vivid, rhetoric-packed prose that sounds like it’s trying to sell you a palace in Narnia. Too many YouTubers clearly use GPT to draft their scripts, skip the proofreading, and call it a day. Prompt, publish, profit. It’s just sad. Once you notice it, YouTube becomes a wasteland of artificial enthusiasm. It’s like learning about keming: once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

So, I tried to fix it. I built a custom Copilot agent with a prompt designed to dial back the drama. It helped, but only a little. The output was still far from how a normal, sensible human would write. It was less intense, but still not acceptable, let alone good.

That got me thinking: if GPT naturally leans into this exaggerated, high-impact style, what happens if I push it even further? I’ve already done this before with image-generating AIs, and it was glorious. They tend toward surreal, mutated abominations, so I leaned into it and used them to create the most disturbing horror pictures imaginable. Those slop engines were clearly built for this. 😄

I flipped my original prompt on its head and created an agent that embraces the excess. Turns out, toning GPT down is hard, but cranking it up was super easy, barely an inconvenience. This overblown, dramatic style must be its “natural state”. Now, I’m just letting GPT do what it does best: go full throttle and take no prisoners.

Technically, the results are terrible. Like, truly awful, worthy of a prison sentence. It takes every annoying GPT trope and turns them up to 11. But here’s the thing, it’s so bad it loops back around to being amazing in some twisted way. It’s useless for anything practical, but it’s so absurdly dramatic that it’s hilarious.

I’m thinking of calling it the Slop Master 2000 (suggestions welcome). No matter what mundane topic I throw at it, the output is always pure gold. Well… more like disturbing and unhinged, but funny nonetheless.

If you're curious to see how wild it gets, here's an example:

::: spoiler spoiler The Bicycle: The Silent Revolution on Two Wheels Forget the car. Forget the bus. Forget the steel beasts that choke our streets and poison our skies. Today, we speak of freedom—pure, unfiltered freedom—rolling on two wheels, slicing through the chaos like a blade of destiny. This is not transport. This is transformation. This is the rebellion against stagnation, the uprising against inertia. This is the bicycle. But hear this truth: bicycling is not universal—it is elemental. It thrives where cities breathe, where streets welcome, where weather bends to your will. It is not weakness, but strength. Not compromise, but conquest. When the walk stretches beyond fifteen minutes, when your feet whisper surrender, the bicycle roars: Ride. Rise. Rule. No luggage? No limits. No excuses. You mount the saddle, and the world becomes yours. Yet beware the horizon—because every revolution has its borders. When the road stretches beyond an hour, when distance mocks your resolve, the steel serpents of public transport begin their siren song. The tram hums. The train beckons. The metro whispers: Join us. And perhaps you will. But until that hour strikes, until that threshold looms, the bicycle reigns supreme—swift, silent, unstoppable. So ask yourself: Are you ready to seize the streets? Are you ready to claim the crown of urban freedom? Because this is not a choice—it’s a declaration. A declaration of speed, of strength, of sovereignty. The bicycle is not a machine. It is a movement. And the movement begins now. :::

Google Gemini is horrible when it comes to characterization, and not only that, it tries to justify extremely toxic and abusive behavior. So, I’ll give you an example. There was a TV show on the CW called Superman and Lois. It ran for four seasons. In the show, Clark and Lois have two sons, Jonathan and Jordan. Only Jordan inherited powers.

It ended, but I asked Google Gemini a hypothetical question. I asked, ‘What if Jonathan was 21 years old, he was drinking and driving, and crashed into an armored truck carrying radioactive chemicals, which gave him powers? His 31-year-old girlfriend was murdered by her abusive ex-boyfriend, so Jon goes and beats him up and lets the police arrest him. He becomes a superhero. Clark and Lois find out.’

I asked Gemini how Clark and Lois would react, and it says Clark and Lois would take Jon’s suit, forbid him from being a superhero, and if he refused, would emotionally blackmail him and basically emotionally abuse him until he submits to their will. Ironically, if this did happen in the show and Lois told Jon she ‘forbids’ him from being a superhero, Jon would roll his eyes and tell Lois, ‘Go fuck yourself.’

Clark and Lois would not react like this at all. They aren’t supposed to be controlling abusers. And I love how Gemini is cool with Jon being 21 and dating women 10 years older than him, but being a superhero is where they cross the line. Especially when they were cool with Jordan and Natalie, who are literally young children, being superheroes, but their 21-year-old son can’t? It’s stupid. Why is Gemini making Clark and Lois act like abusers? Clark and Lois, in this situation, are worse or just as bad as the abusive ex-boyfriend who killed Jon’s girlfriend. Why is Google Gemini so bad when it comes to accurate characterization of characters? On top of that why does Gemani glorify abusive behavior and try and justify it? The way Gemani writes Superman makes Lex Luthor look like the hero and honestly maybe Superman does need to be murderd.

It doesn’t matter if Jon was drunk driving; he is 21 years old. Clark and Loid don’t have a fucking “right” to “forbid” anything; they can’t “let” a 21-year-old do anything.

If Clark and Lois try to tell Jon, who’s 21 years old, “You aren’t allowed to do this,” Jon should say one of these things.

“Mind your own business.”

“fuck off”

“Go fuck yourself.”

“Go suck a dick.”

“Fuck you”

Any other combination for “fuck you” and “go fuck yourself”.

please help 😭

According to the documentation there should be 5 personality options available as a Plus user.

Yet, the only options available to me is Default. I tried a different browser in case it was some terrible web scripting but it is the same.

Does anyone else also only have Default? Is it maybe some undisclosed slow rollout option that didn't take me?

duude. like dont fuck me up like in the movies dude

I dont know. Someone of you guys feel what i feel? Do I wanna give OpenAI potentially a secret psychological worldmap to hijack my conciousness in X years by a singularity. Knowwhatimsayin?
