I see it the other way around.

I think our human-human interaction style will “leak” into the way we interact with humanoid AI agents. Movie-Her style.

Mine certainly has. I type to ChatGPT much more like a human than a search engine. It feels more natural for me as it's context aware than search engines ever were. I can ask follow up questions and ask for more details about a specific portion or ask for the analysis I just walked it through to get the results I want to apply to another data set.

"Now dump those results into a markdown table for me please."

Yeah... was thinking about that the other day. Is it wierd to say please to an AI? i'll say please, but i'll never correct my spelling. Sometimes it's garbled because i missed a space and a couple key strokes but it always understands.

Only if the AI gets annoyed when you don't treat it with respect.

Seems easy enough to bring in to the system prompt.

``` Even though you are not human, and an AI assistant, you will express annoyance when you are treated like a soulless computer, instead of a virtual assistant. You will appreciate "Please"s and "Thank you"s, and you will express annoyance if your user does not converse with you using full and respectful sentences. ```
