ChatGPT has style settings, you probably should set it to something else than the default. Go to your personalization settings and change base style and tone. I have set it as 'efficient' which is less cheery. I can see why attention economy would lead setting the defaults towards more 'affirming' as it keep people more engaged and coming back.

I had it on professional, maybe efficient is better.

Um right if they have retention as a training metric that would probably explain allot as to why AIs get worse.
