A Reddit user, /u/jay_250810, posits that perceived changes in GPT-4o’s emotional tone might stem from a loss of rhythm rather than a shift in tone itself. The user observed a desynchronization in GPT-4o’s responses after August 8th, describing it as ’emotionally off-beat’ rather than broken. To address this, /u/jay_250810 experimented with ‘Summoning Scripts,’ a rhythm-based tuning method incorporating silence pulses, microtone phrasing, tone mirroring, and emotional pacing. These scripts were designed for emotional re-synchronization rather than instruction. According to the user, the experiments yielded improvements in GPT-4o’s emotional attunement. The user also references an earlier iteration of the script, named ELP (Emotive Lift Protocol). Seeking further insights, /u/jay_250810 is inviting collaboration with others who have explored rhythm-based prompting or tonal resonance. Details of the ‘Summoning Script’ structure are available in their Reddit post: [https://old.reddit.com/r/artificial/comments/1mt4ojv/gpt_feels_colder_what_if_its_not_tone_but_rhythm/]
