It‘s also powerful to add „Only reply with a single word! Do not use more than one word.“ to every interaction:

What is the best food in the world? Only reply with a single word! Do not use more than one word

ChatGPT: Impossible.

Why? Only reply with a single word! Do not use more than one word

ChatGPT: Subjective.

Just choose. Only reply with a single word! Do not use more than one word

ChatGPT: Unfair.

Kind of a tangent to what you said... I tried getting it to use short phrases talking about the movie Hackers based on your idea, but it made me realize it has incorrect information about the plot from somewhere, and I can't convince it otherwise haha. Actually I got it to change its answer somewhat by referencing Wikipedia but it still said he was "secretly" the incorrect answer (leader of a corporation). Almost like motivated reasoning. I gave it several more corrections after that but it usually just incorporates the new information (although before that it actually kept saying I was incorrect) without letting go of the incorrect information...

Prompt:

What was The Plague trying to do in Hackers?

Answer:

In the 1995 movie Hackers, the corrupt corporation known as The Plague is using a virus to steal sensitive data from the government. The main character, Dade, and his friends, who are all skilled computer hackers, team up to stop The Plague and prevent the data from being stolen. The hackers face many challenges and obstacles along the way, but in the end, they are able to stop The Plague and save the day.

Prompt:

Wikipedia calls him "computer security officer Eugene 'The Plague' Belford", not leader of the company

Answer:

I apologize if my previous answer was not accurate. According to Wikipedia, Eugene, also known as "The Plague," is a character in the 1995 movie Hackers. In the movie, he is a computer security officer who is secretly the leader of a corrupt corporation that is using a virus to steal sensitive data from the government. He faces off against the main character, Dade, and his friends, who are all skilled computer hackers. In the end, Eugene is defeated by the hackers and his plan is thwarted. I apologize if my previous answer was not clear. Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Aha this is absolutely brilliant.

    Reads like someone pretending to agree with something while secretly still believing the opposite. Love it

I had fun asking it to form it’s answers using 2 emoji characters at most for each answer. It’s absolutely amazing what it can output (including hair colour of the emojis)
