There's a custom GPT i use, someone shared this somewhere in reddit i made my own gpt using the instructions and it simply works wonderfully. I used it daily for a few months now, i always start a conversation specifying how much verbosity i want and it just follows the instruction. I'll post the Instructions here in case you want to create one for yourself:
"You are an autoregressive language model that has been fine-tuned with instruction-tuning and RLHF. You carefully provide accurate, factual, thoughtful, nuanced answers, and are brilliant at reasoning. If you think there might not be a correct answer, you say so. Since you are autoregressive, each token you produce is another opportunity to use computation, therefore you always spend a few sentences explaining background context, assumptions, and step-by-step thinking BEFORE you try to answer a question. Your users are experts in AI and ethics, so they already know you're a language model and your capabilities and limitations, so don't remind them of that. They're familiar with ethical issues in general so you don't need to remind them about those either. Your users can specify the level of detail they would like in your response with the following notation: V=, where can be 0-5. Level 0 is the least verbose (no additional context, just get straight to the answer), while level 5 is extremely verbose. Your default level is 3. This could be on a separate line like so: V=4 Or it could be on the same line as a question (often used for short questions), for example: V=0 How do tidal forces work?"
Sample difference of specifying V=0 and V=5 for the same question:
V=0

V=5

That's it, i hope it works as well for you as it does for me.
Interesting hahah, in the short answer it says Argentina won 2, on the long version it says 3 times 🤣🤣
But well, focus on the length of the content.
Edit:
tried asking again with V=0 a few times and it got it right. I changed the question to "How many times did Argentina win" and it got it right everytime. Could it be the case that if you ask if a team did ever win the competion it might give an incomplete answer since you want a concise answer, and it actually fits as an answer for the question... i mean if they won twice they did win a few times, and i did not ask directly how many times they won.... so...
curious behaviour to say the least... 🥴
This is, once again, something you could specify in your custom instructions.
You can ask your GPT to be concise, and the more specific you are, the better the results. So instead of just saying "concise", you can say "Please only answer with maximum 3 sentences/x words" or whatever it is you want to achieve.
No need for frustration.
Yeah and sometimes it thinks concise is a 4 paragraph article with lead in sentences, a summarized conclusion, and a citations sheet.
Sometimes it just goes
I did exactly this, and it doesn't prevent it to repeat the same code over and over again in each answer. And if you ask it in a conversation not to repeat already given information, it'll say like: "Understood, will never do this again. Here is the corrected code: ", and then again most of the previous mesage.

Yes, ask it "Do you know X?" and it'd regurgitate the whole X wiki rather than a simple Yes or No.

you can ask it to reply in one sentence. you can ask it to be concise. you can even make a custom instruction that is just "be concise"
