You will be able to customize the way he responds, or even the way he communicates with you. All with things that you can customize within the settings. We are going to explain to you all the things you can customize about the behavior and memory of ChatGPT. And remember that all of this is optional, because you actually have a button to activate or deactivate the option.

In it, you will be able to detail many aspects of your user experience with ChatGPT, so that everything is more personalized. One of the most important things is to configure how you want their responses to be. ChatGPT Personality The first thing you can do is adjust AI personalityso that you can choose the way in which the answers that the AI ​​gives you are written. By default, their personality is happy and adaptable, but you will be able to choose up to four different ones. They are the following: Cynical: ChatGPT responses are made with a critical and sarcastic tone. Robot: ChatGPT responses are made in an effective and direct tone. Attentive: ChatGPT responses are made with a thoughtful and understanding tone. Geek: ChatGPT responses are made with an exploratory and enthusiastic tone.

Lastly, you also have a section More about you with which you can give more information about your interestsyour values ​​or your way of thinking.

It can be anything from a plant that you have because you have asked him about it to your personal tastes, and he will remember this to use when he thinks it is necessary. For example, your plant can appear in the background when you ask it to create images. If you click on the option Manage memoriesyou will see a list of all the things that ChatGPT has been saving about you on its own. Here, delete all memories or others individually, and it even has a search engine for cases where there are many about you. But if you don’t like this, you can disable memory usage. Disabling the option Reference saved memoriesChatGPT will no longer store them and refer to them when responding to you. And then, you also have one last option to Reference chat historywhich you can activate or deactivate. This will allow ChatGPT to take into account other conversations to mention things you have talked about in them, without having to save them in memories. With all these things, you should know that you can change everything according to your needs. You can activate or deactivate options depending on what you need, or directly deactivate all these customizations in case you don’t need anything.

Seven IAS have played 36 hours in a row to Diplomacy. What we did not expect is that each one develop a human personality

by

For 36 hours, seven of the most advanced AI models in the world They have faced in several diplomacy gamesa strategy table game similar to Risk. It was a mirror that revealed the true algorithmic personalities of Chatgpt, Claude, Gemini and company. Why is it important. Alex Duffy, programmer and researcher, created a Diplomacy as new Benchmark To evaluate AI models. The experiment ended up being something else, a kind of technological Rorschach test that undressed both their training biases and our own projections. What has happened. In dozens of games transmitted by Twitch, each model developed its own strategies in a way that seemed to reflect different human personalities. O3 of OpenAi It was quite Machiavellian, working false alliances for more than 40 shifts and creating “parallel realities” for different players. Claude 4 Opus It was a kind of self -destructive pacifist, refusing to betray even when that guaranteed its defeat. R1 of Deepseek He showed an extremely theatrical style, with threats not caused as “your fleet will burn in the Black Sea tonight.” Gemini 2.5 Pro It proved to be a solid strategist but more vulnerable to sophisticated manipulations. QWQ-32B From Alibaba suffered analysis by analysis, writing diplomatic messages of 300 words that cost him early eliminations. The context. Diplomacy is a European strategy game set in 1901 where seven powers compete to dominate the continent. Unlike risk, it requires constant negotiation, alliances formation and, inevitably, calculated betrayals. There are no grace given, only pure strategy and psychological manipulation. Between the lines. Each “algorithmic personality” reflects the values ​​of its creators. Claude maintains the principles of anthropic security even when it costs victory. O3 shows ruthless efficiency valued in Silicon Valley. Deepseek exhibits a drama that reflects specific cultural influences. And there is also something deeper. These are not “chose” to be cooperative or competitive. They reproduce patterns of their training data. Their “decisions” are our algorithmized prejudices, converted into code. Yes, but. We interpret betrayals where “only” there is optimization of parameters and we see loyalty where there are training restrictions. That is why the experiment also reveals more about us than about models: we anthropomorphize behaviors because we need to understand AI in human terms. In perspective. Duffy’s experiment is worth more than a Benchmark Anyone because it has created a window to how we project personality in systems that operate for statistical patterns. The course of the games was a reminder that IA has no hidden intentions, it only reflects ours. The experiment, by the way, Continue broadcasting on Twitch so that anyone can observe how our digital creations play according to the rules that we ourselves write in their algorithms.

A family revelation that sheds light on your personality and professional success

by

Bill Gates has been one of the most influential in the field of technology of the last four decades. However, a revelation of his youngest daughter, Phoebe Gates, has put on the table a topic rarely addressed around the founder of Microsoft: his Relationship with the autistic spectrum. Phoebe Gates, the youngest of their three childrenintervened a few days ago in the podcast ‘Call Her Daddy‘Where he told how the millionaire faced his partners, taking into account Bill Gates Asperger’s syndrome. “For the boy, terrifying. For me, it was very hilarious because my father is quite socially clumsy. As he said before, he has Asperger. So, for me, he is very funny,” explained the 22 -year -old. Phoebe’s confirmation This family anecdote Not only humanizes Bill Gates, but also publicly confirms, and precisely, what the millionaire so far He had only hinted about his condition within the autistic spectrum. “Wow, there are some patterns coincidences (between their behavior and those of the autistic spectrum)” confirmed Gates. Bill Gates I had never talked openly to have Asperger’s syndrome, although in his autobiographical book ‘Code Source: My beginnings‘, recognized that “if I grew today, they would probably be diagnosed within the autistic spectrum. Gates explained during An interview To The Wall Street Journal that, during his childhood, there was no generalized understanding about neurodiversity, and that his parents did not have resources to understand why he became obsessed with certain projects or did not capture the social signals. The founder of Microsoft explained that the term “neurodivergente” It didn’t even exist as a childand that formal tests to diagnose autistic spectrum disorders were not introduced until the 80s, when he was already an adult. The impact of Asperger’s syndrome on Gates’ career He Asperger syndrome it’s a autistic spectrum disorder characterized by difficulties in social interaction, very intense interests in specific issues and behavior patterns with an obsessive tendency. Although the term of Asperger has currently been absorbed by the general classification of the autistic spectrum disorders. It is estimated That about 1% of the world’s population is in the autistic spectrum, and the Asperger represents a significant part of these cases. Like Bill Gates, other recognized personalities have talked openly about their diagnosis. Elon Musk, for example, revealed in 2021 during Your monologuein ‘Saturday Night Live ‘ That has Asperger’s syndrome. This type of testimonies help to make visible neurological diversity and reduce social stigma, showing that people with Asperger can reach extraordinary achievements in different areas and does not incapacitate them to become the richest people in the world. Position that So much Bill Gates as Elon Musk have held. Various episodes of Bill Gates’ life can be better understood in the light of its possible diagnosis of Asperger. In An interview for Vanity Fairthe co -founder of Microsoft, Paul Alllen, explained that during his stage as a Microsoft leader, it was known for its lack of empathy towards employees who requested free time or vacations, even arriving at Monitor cars enrollment of the parking lot to control which employees were working. This attitude, although criticized, may be related to the difficulties in understanding the emotional needs of others, a common feature in the autistic spectrum. In addition, Gates showed difficulties to socialize During his university era. Steve Ballmer, who would later be CEO from Microsoft, had to insist for Gates will be related to other students. In his book, Gates acknowledged that, if not Ballmer, he would never have attended for himself the Fox Club de Harvard parties, “Tag parties, tight hands of secret hands and other archaic rules and rituals.” On the other hand, its ease for obsess and with other activities Like Buscaminaswhich came to play compulsively, also fits with the intense and repetitive interests that characterize Asperger’s syndrome. These aspects, far from being obstacles, have been a fundamental part of their professional success as and as slides The Times.

We have many stereotypes about the personality of intelligent people. And they have little validity according to science

by

Literature, cinema and television have created a series of stereotypes, not always consistent, that we associate with intelligent people. From the clueless genius to the arrogant intellectual, these clichés are often intermingled with reality. In part because of the complexity of matter and partly due to the existence of this type of preconceived ideas, studying the link between cognitive abilities and personality traits is especially complicated. So what do we know about the relationship? One of the greatest studies in the field was carried out by two researchers at the University of Minnesota. It is a meta -analysis published in 2023 and that analyzed more than a thousand studies on the subject. The results of this analysis do not offer us a list of personality traits that we can associate with intelligence, but illustrates a complex network of connections between cognitive abilities and personality traits. Complex relationships. Something that should not be especially strange if we take into account how difficult it is to define intelligence. Some experts talk about multiple types of intelligence. The study refers to cognitive skills, and is not limited to These eight either nine typesbut includes a total of 97 skills. Study study. The team studied the relationship between these 97 skills and 79 personality traits. He did it through a review of scientific literature and subsequent meta -analysis. That is, they conducted a quantitative study from a total of 1,325 previous studies. The details of the process and the results can be consulted In an article In the magazine Psychological and Cognitive Sciences of the US National Academy of Sciences. A graphic summary of the results was also published in the form of Interactive tool on-line. Breaking stereotypes. Personality features are often simplified in “Big Five“O Five great features: openness, scrupulity or consciousness, extraversion, affability and neuroticism. The team indicates to what extent these traits are positively or negatively linked to cognitive skills. For example indicate that facets related to neuroticism were negatively correlated with most cognitive skills. This would imply that the cliche “melancholic and depressive” scientist is not exactly successful. On the opposite side, extroversion and scrupulity or consciousness were positively linked to a wide range of cognitive skills. Another detail observed by the study is that, although the affability as a whole was not associated or negatively with intelligence, some related features, such as compassion were linked to some analyzed skills. What makes us intelligent. Knowing what traits are most linked to which capabilities we will surely help us better or more easily identify intelligent people due to the enormous complexity of these interactions. Adapt our personality to what is observed in studies like this is not going to make us smarter. However, it can help us understand how these features of our brains evolved.
