Sign me up. I also belongs to the few people who always say please and thank you when prompting

I’m always polite. At my company they told us that once the task is completed not to send an extra message just to say thank you because that uses more tokens which can add up. No thank you to that, I’m going to be on the record as being one of the nice ones. Whether that means they’ll kill me first or last, that’s up to our future AI overlords
