I've asked it how to scp a file on Windows 11 and it'll take a minute to tell me all the options possible.

If so, consider adding one of the “just get to the point” prompts. GPT4’s defaults have been geared towards public acceptance through long-windedness which is imo entirely unnecessary when using it to do functional things like scp a file.
Also, use case thing. It is very likely the case that for certain coding use cases, Phind will always be faster because it's not designed to be general purpose.
By keeping the prompt short, it starts generating output quicker too.
Just trying to provide helpful feedback for you, this would have been a great comment, except for the "LOL" at the beginning that was unnecesary and demeaning.

It lets you specify verbosity from 1 to 5 (e.g. "V=1" in the prompt). Sometimes the model will just ignore that, but it actually does work most of the time. I use a verbosity of 1 or 2 when I just want a quick answer.
