A quotation from Richard Steele
Whenever you commend, add your reasons for doing so; it is this which distinguishes the approbation of a man of sense from the flattery of sycophants and admiration of fools.
Richard Steele (1672-1729) Anglo-Irish writer, journalist, playwright, politician

As a recent shift-vert to @AskLumo: is there a button for turning off the #sycophancy? I have modified the "style" in the one Project on my free plan. I don't want to include anti-sycophancy prompts with every other inquiry.
It feels yucky to have my ego stroked by a machine, and I don't need it ~ I need clear, objective perspective on my blind spots.
I see this is a "known bug", so consider this my ticket: #global #antisycophancy #settings please.
