LLM Counter-Defaults

LLM Counter-Defaults is a tool by AIxDESIGN that lets users customize their large language model's default behaviors by adjusting sliders across multiple dimensions such as confidence, agreeableness, and task focus. Users set their preferences once, generating tailored instructions that guide the LLM to follow these rules in all subsequent chats, effectively overriding factory settings to better fit individual needs and values. The project, created by Nadia Piet and built with Claude Code, offers an interface to fine-tune the LLM's style and output to promote more personalized interactions.
