People have too much shit to do. If I ask an AI how to do something in three different ways it’s not going to be frustrated.

Literally did that yesterday with ChatGPT. Used it as tech support for changing my display refresh rate via a shortcut command. It kept apologising and offering different solutions, not losing its temper once. 10/10 would use it over a real person.

So much easier to communicate without having to worry about smalltalk, being accidentally rude etc.

I must be an AI, because I don’t lose my patience with people unless they lose theirs. It’s about respect, really

which is good but it would be better to not rely on your patience as it's not unlimited.

Mine is, for people who have self-control. I tolerate the tolerant but I am intolerant of the intolerant, as it should be.

AI should tolerate the intolerant if it has no consciousness.

Some people are naturally more patient than others. Genetic, upbringing, I don't know, but there are differences, I don't think you can say its just respect.

That’s because we know that no matter how exhausting remaining patient and unruffled can be at times, it pales in comparison to the utter enervation that occurs after turning yourself and everyone around you into a drama llama, followed by attempting to mitigate all the knock-on consequences that come in the wake. A brouhaha like that can knock you into total weariness for a month.
