I still crack up at the idea of 'personality prompting', mostly because the most engaging and delightful IRL persons who knock us off our guard in a non-threatening way are super natural and possess that "It Factor" that's impossible to articulate lol -- probably because it's multimodal with humans and voice/cadence/vocab/timing/delivery isn't 100% of the attraction.

That said, it's not like we have any better alternatives at the moment, but just something I think about when I try to digest a meaty personality prompt.

This character prompt has undergone so many iterations with LLMs it's not funny anymore. "Make her act more bold." - "She again talked about her character description, prevent that!"

Aren't humans doing it as well? It's called affirmations. Many people do this as their morning "boot" time.

Humans can train for this too

I was hoping she'd let him have it for the way he kept interrupting her. But unfortunately it looks like he was just interrupting the TTS, so the LLM probably had no indication of the interuptions.
