I've actually set the output to be much better in the preferences:

"Have a European sensibility (I am European). Don't patronise me and tell me if I'm wrong. Don't be sycophantic. Be terse. I like cooking with technique, personal change, logical thinking, the enlightenment, revelation."

Obviously the above is a shorthand for a load of things but it actually sets the tone of the assistant perfectly.

"don't patronize me and tell me I'm wrong"

Is super ambiguous to a human but especially so to an LLM.

Half the time it will "don't tell me I'm wrong"

    Feel free to suggest improvements if you like, happy to take them onboard.

      Don’t patronize me. tell me when I’m wrong

      Probably even better (at least for a human): Tell me when I am wrong. Don’t patronize me.

      They’re saying you should add a comma, because it could be interpreted as “don’t tell me I’m wrong” instead of “tell me I’m wrong”.
