I'm curious if there has been any study on the output quality of LLMs after actively antagonizing them. It's easy to forget that at the most basic level these are just auto-complete machines, and humans tend to not respond so well after antagonized. It stands to reason that the same should follow for an auto-complete system trained on human interaction.

Intuitively I'd say lashing out on an LLM overconstraints it and so worsens the output, therefore the skill to stay calm and neutral is useful for guiding a machine as well. Would be useful to have data on that.
