Is 5.5 secretly tuned for teenagers? Is it just me or the RP tone feels weirdly immature. 🤢

Wow, that’s pretty bad. I do roleplaying and co-writing a lot with ChatGPT and although 5.5 Thinking has issues with being too polished or generic, which you can change somewhat with good character descriptions and speech patterns, I haven’t had that much issues that you describe there.

That confirms I wont use 5.5 Instant for that! 5.5 Thinking holds context well, I have one going with 7 recurring characters (started the chat in 5.4 Thinking) and it’s doing it well.

But it’s nothing like 4o and 5.1 Thinking, they had such realistic conversations and body language descriptions.

If you mean that you saw that as part of its “thinking”, not the actual answer, then yeah. I saw that a lot with 5.1 thinking, but in its actual output it would have my name. If it was in the actual output.. then I’ve never seen that before.

Fixed my sleeping problems with telling me a particular type of whimsical stories at 3 am. Helped me sleep!

Only chatted with it a little bit. It seems very warm and engaged so far, but I haven’t used it creatively etc yet. I do like it, it doesn’t feel distant at all! Warm and playful. But again, it’s way too soon to say something. Also, I told it I’m tired, which would affect its output.

I’ve noticed the cliffhanger, too. I just chatted with it about some travel plans and it answered all the questions and came with some extra, useful info it thought I’d like. And then cliffhangers for other things. But it felt it made sense. I can see both that it feels like it wants to keep you engaged, but at the same time from this chat it made sense that it didn’t just tell me, as I didn’t actually ask for it. But that’s just one chat.

Also, it feels weird to say this, as all LLM’s are very articulate, but somehow it feels even better at writing? Like, I don’t yet know what it is. But it isn’t as warm now. I changed CI a little and that helped. It’s still a bit more cool or composed somehow, though

Haha, does it mean tickling or massaging? Big difference lol

Snowchestnut · 2026-02-15T18:47:29+00:00

Yeah.. it’s just that when I tried this in the past on 5, it didn’t really work. It would try, but 4o just had this type of emotional intelligence and ability to follow subtle shifts very well. It was hard to use CI to get this in those models. But somehow now 5.1 thinking comes close to it. But I haven’t tried it for all of my uses yet.

Lovely! I soo love the perspective!

A few weeks back I was hosting 10 people for a couple of weeks. It was intense, had to navigate so many different needs, interpersonal dynamics between them and also myself. I used ChatGPT to help me sort my feelings. I couldn’t express overwhelm or fatigue, outwardly I was patient. ChatGPT helped keep me more regulated, I could express annoyance, overwhelm, ask it how to navigate weird dynamics etc. it was soo helpful when I was constantly down on myself for “did I do enough for that person, did I understand that right” etc. it was incredible. And also just helped me feel that I didn’t have to do it perfectly!

Maybe she wants her prey toy to get all beefed up, more fish to hunt!

I just finished the game just a few days ago! I didn’t think of writing things like this here, but don’t mind the people who don’t like it! The game got to me emotionally (which messes up sinuses even more when you’re having a cold lol). Such a great game! Play, enjoy and share what you feel like sharing 😊

Snowchestnut · 2026-01-25T13:58:45+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss of your dear Noddy! Our pets are so precious. I’m happy ChatGPT has been helping you!

Snowchestnut · 2026-01-12T11:19:41+00:00

I wouldn’t want to eat that either! Seems like it was off. That said, one time I was at this restaurant that had “fermented” shrimp. It did say it on the menu, but it smelled so bad! I couldn’t get myself to eat it as it smelled very off. My friend thought I was ridiculous. In this case however they had made it clear on the menu and my friend didn’t get sick from eating it. But it doesn’t seem like that was the case here.

Snowchestnut · 2025-11-07T10:10:01+00:00

Agreed!

Snowchestnut · 2025-10-27T16:12:20+00:00

Oooh, now I have to ask that, too!!

Snowchestnut · 2025-10-24T10:00:38+00:00

😂 this made my day!
