My very brief interaction with GPT5 is that it's just weird.

"Sure, I'll help you stop flirting with OOMs"

"Thought for 27s Yep-..." (this comes out a lot)

"If you still graze OOM at load"

"how far you can push --max-model-len without more OOM drama"

- all this in a prolonged discussion about CUDA and various llm runners. I've added special user instructions to avoid flowery language, but it gets ignored.

Turn off the setting that lets it reference chat history; it's under Personalization.

Also take a peek at what's in Memories (which is separate from the above); consider cleaning it up or disabling entirely.

Oh, I went through that. o3 had the same memories and was always to the point.

Yes, but don't miss what I said about the other setting. You can't see what it's using from past conversations, and if you had one or two flippant conversations with it at some point, it can decide to start speaking that way.

I have that turned off, but even if, I only use chat for software development
