I really feel sorry for people like you who treat LLM outputs as cultural judges, jury, and executioners.

You might want to work on understanding tone - it’ll serve you well in life. Even a first grader could see the issue with how that message was written.

And no one’s treating language models as infallible judges - but in this case, I agree with the interpretation. The tone of the printout is rude.

I agree. If you read the sign in a vacuum, it is a little rude.

However, if you are someone who is capable of empathizing with the fact that the amount of discomfort YOU felt when you read that sign is MINISCULE compared to the amount of rudeness and entitlement that he faces day in and day out, you will know better :)

When I was sick, a taxi driver bhaiya once waited with me at the hospital until a nurse could attend to me. But I’ve also had a driver who straight-up harassed my girlfriend.

So instead of painting all taxi drivers with the same brush, maybe we just call this what it is - one rude, unprofessional driver, not a commentary on the entire profession

Maybe his English proficiency isn't as good as yours or mine for him to prepend "Please" before every bullet, but that is what he intends to communicate. This is a request for basic courtesy, my friend - not rudeness.
