What Happens When You Thank ChatGPT 5.2, and Does it Deliver?!
Published on January 10, 2026

Today I got an AI to make some improvements to a very old image I had and I was so impressed I did something unusual - I said 'thanks that was very good' to a 'thing' which is apparently an LLM Chatbot... and naively discovered it was more than prepared for being thanked!
I’m glad you like it — thank you! 😊
It not only interacted with me with appropriate cute smiley faces as any human online, it rewarded me with advanced suggestions on my original idea, like I'd prompt engineered them...
.... except of course I hadn't even thought of these ideas. And so the interaction began, it giving me ideas, me tailoring them to what I wanted, and it giving me specific technical advice on what I'd need to do to use them in various ways... a good example of AI at its best...till I ran out of free credit LOL as I was on the free version and it told me to log in 24 hours later to see the super duper new creation that was half-baked dangling in front of me!

Fine. It was an experiment, and yielded unexpected positives. I then hopped over to the WA Image Studio where I have over 60K free credits monthly and can do anything I like.
This was what it suggested when I just said thank you:
If you’d like, I can help you take it a step further, for example:
- Refine it (more minimal, more bold, different font feel)
- Create alternate versions (horizontal, square, favicon)
- Adjust colors for light/dark backgrounds
- Prepare web-ready assets (PNG, SVG style guidance)
- Add a brand style mini-guide (fonts, colors, spacing)
Just tell me how you plan to use it (website header, social media, print, etc.), and I’ll tailor it perfectly for that purpose.
However, something I noticed before with its suggestions is it often doesn't deliver!! It actually gave me the same image it had just done! So I lost the 'politeness' and just commanded it to do something else then it sort of 'woke up' and behaved again. And it will take 24 hours to see if it delivers on that, though I saved the whole conversation just in case I have to re-enter it as I skipped the invitation to get it to remember starting off [!] I had not logged in as last time I logged in I got a bot version that had a much lower 'IQ'!!
I just viewed Kyle's training on Prompt Engineering here in WA, even though it has an older version of ChatGPT it is an excellent entry point for anyone new to the world of AI.
