Adding a smiley improves performance according to Logan Kilpatrick, head of developer relations at OpenAI.

> There's a lot of really small silly things, like adding a smiley face, increases the performance of the model.

> You could imagine on the order of one or 2%, which for a few sentence answer might not even be a discernible difference. Again, if you're generating an entire saga of texts, the smiley face could actually make a material difference for you, but for something small and textual it might not.

He mentioned that in Lenny’s podcast at 24:37.
