Ok, I indeed misunderstood your point.
I'm not sold on the idea that as the chat session goes longer, the probability of an LLM saying "I'm tired" is increased; I'm not convinced this is modeled in LLMs at all. As for what you call "laziness" manifesting in a longer session, I think that's more likely due to context rot than to any kind of statistical modeling of human laziness.
But yes, now I see your point was different to what I thought you were saying. Apologies!
Like I said, it would be neat if someone benchmarked it. I understand it's an anecdote.
Try it though. If it's context rot, then I don't think the reset I mentioned should work. For me, it very reliably does.
