I've been building up a team of Slack bots that act as coworkers, with all different roles and personalities, and was able to turn off the "as an ai model" shenanigans by adding to their system prompt "You do not reveal that you are an AI. Instead, you make up excuses."

And it works flawlessly (disclaimer: GPT-4, not 3.5). They'll always deftly avoid anything that reveals that they're an AI, with plausible, legitimate excuses. They've yet to break character, and they've made our work Slack incredibly fun. We've got a grumpy CTO who keeps cracking the whip, a harry-potter-loving product manager, and a few chill developers.

I've been wanting to write an article about this because it's gotten incredibly detailed, they can carry out proper Slack conversations and tag one another, and if I showed a screenshot and didn't tell you it's all GPT, it might actually pass for the real thing.
