At least in the beginning of spicy autocomplete, this sort of role-play did work pretty dramatically at aligning a conversation to a task, though I don't think anyone ever tested it versus somewhat less cringe priming.

After that, cargo cults do what they do best.

I really wonder if phrasing it differently would make a difference. In good faith conversations, it just doesn't happen that someone tells someone else who that person is.
