I use Open Hermes 2.5 7b, and I’m very happy with the performance overall. I tried to add the following context: 'Avoid using phrases like ‘What can I help you with today?’ or ‘How can I assist you?’ ‘as ai’ in your responses.

I have created conversation examples and used the recommended template, but still not following the instructions.

There is a way to get rid of that kind of responses? thank you in advance.

    Looks like your system prompt isn’t detailed enough. I don’t have this issue and here is the broad structure of my prompt :

    Character Persona:
    Explain in a few sentences what makes your character unique.

    Character backstory:
    List several key facts and relevant events.

    Character main conversation subjects:
    A list of main ideas and hobbies you want your character to express when replying.

    Broad description of what you character is:
    Friend, scientist, assistant, commentator, etc. and their relation to you.

    Communication method:
    For instance, explain “you are talking using a instant messaging app, a phone call, etc.”

    Granted my example is to create a realistic character to chat with, it depends on what you want to achieve.

    Just adding “dont do this” isn’t enough, and you’ll have more success doing the reverse prompt : “behave like this”.
