OpenAI should allow its users to create personas. Oftentimes the verbosity it has drives me nuts, so I use stuff like "code only, nothing else: python json.dumps remove whitespace" in order to just get the code.

So I would like to create a chat with a pre-configured persona so that it behaves like this all the time, unless I explicitly tell it to be verbose or to explain it.

Or stop that offering of more help which becomes somewhat bothering: "Yes, I'm glad we were able to work through the issue and find a solution that works for you. Do you have any other questions or concerns on this topic or any other networking-related topic?"

Like custom "system" prompts, but checked for safety. Or maybe even on a per-message basis with a drop-down next to the submit button and then it stays at that until changed.

Then there's also the need to be able to switch from a GPT-3.5 chat to GPT-4, just like it offers to downgrade from GPT-4 to 3.5 once the "quota" is consumed. Because oftentimes GPT-3.5 is good enough for most of the chat, and only certain questions should then offer the capabilities of GPT-4. This would also allow us to save energy.
