ChatGPT Criticized for Overusing Disclaimers
Fantastic-Form9812 · reddit · 2026-07-15
The author feels that the new version of ChatGPT tends to lead with disclaimers, uncertainties, and safety caveats before addressing the main topic.
The core request isn't to reduce accuracy, but rather that when a user clearly wants an explanation, observation, or discussion, the model should first provide analysis aligned with the conversational intent, adding caveats only where necessary. The author believes a "good response feels like a conversation," rather than "a disclaimer making excuses."
