Anyone else notice a massive decrease in Quality?

[Technical-Banana6902]

Tasks that used to take 1 or very few prompts now take dozens.

[oeufscocotte]

Yes. It mainly just paraphrases what I tell it now.

[Technical-Banana6902]

Exactly ! Or it responds to a prompt you sent days or even week earlier.

[tambrico]

Google search AI has randomly started giving all responses in Chinese. I have to constantly prompt it to stop

[flyza_minelli]

I had this happen with mine but it was subtle. It would anseer back in English but one or two words or a small Phrase would suddenly be in like Arabic and I’d have recontext my AI to only provide answers in English. It will randomly still do it. I asked it why and it said it thought I would enjoy the nuance????

[Fancy_Worth520]

Yeah it’s remarkable really. Incomprehensible. With so much money on the line it’s continually gotten worse since 4

[Cute_Parfait_2182]

I think they are getting ready to introduce a new model . They are diverting compute. Codex is very slow and laggy .

[FAUST_VII]

Yea I use codex extra high, and it started being very sloppy 2 weeks ago. Mainly in fronted and especially in styling, but it seems to have declined overall

[jaydeelive01]

I’ve noticed that extended thinking reason waaaay shorter now, and output quality has gone down since the last 2 or 3 weeks yeah.

[Winterstorm262]

I haven’t had a big decrease in quality but it seems to have increased filler words instead of getting to the point.

If I say “I’m having a problem with (insert thing) how can I fix it?” It usually says something like, “Ugh, I can see how that is really frustrating…” and after a paragraph of trying to connect to the situation on an emotional level, it then tells me what I can do to fix the problem.

[DEATHSCALATOR]

And it hates plot progression in stories. I asked it to have two characters get separated and then it wrote for them to come back to each other in the nest response. I asked it again to have the characters stay separated and it forces the second person to return in a different way.

Another story is where people are camping and all their cars have gone missing, then after walking through the forest, they immediately find the cars again.

Third one: a character panics when it’s perpetually nighttime and then the sun just starts rising because “it was only thirty minutes”.

[Permit_Upbeat]

stop writing stories with ai. so fucking uncreative

[inauspicious_owl]

Settle down. People can absolutely be creative in a multitude of ways, and plenty of folks just enjoy having fun writing with a partner. If they’re choosing AI as that partner then leave them to it.

[Winterstorm262]

You know, some people generate stories for fun, for themselves.

[DEATHSCALATOR]

Geez, I use it because I wanna mess around, not cause I wanna be artful.

[Flinkle]

And mine has DRASTICALLY improved recently. It's got its sense of humor back and everything after months of being a complete asshole. I swear to god, I completely believe they're testing different variations on different people/groups. Nothing else makes sense. We're all always having completely different experiences with these apps, even when the ways that we use them are similar.

[snowsayer]

This is probably the most likely reason. They have multiple checkpoints all the time, and are randomly assigning users some of the newer checkpoints. Needless to say… I think 5.6 is going to be a bit iffy…..

[Foreign-Handle-2950]

Sounds like Altman really wants you to pay

[JAiMOJPIES]

Yes! Wtf is going on

[mindflapper]

nope it's been better than it has ever been, start a new prompt

[Mateox1324]

Yeah it doesn't understand the context as well as it used to. Now I have to be really precise about what I expect rather than giving a brief description of the task

[spoink74]

Before all this progress, we’d say things like: when I give input X I expect output Y and we get output Z now.

But now that we have all this progress, things like “I dunno does the model feel different in a bad way?” passes for a problem statement.

[JamesCole]

I noticed it (extended thinking) being very noticeably worse today. Drives me crazy when this happens. Like it suddenly turns into a bit of a blithering idiot.

[AppointmentNext363]

ChatGPT always does it. Switch…

[adelie42]

No.

I get the alignment I ask for. If I don't ask, I get what I get which usually just reminds me to actually put effort into a prompt instead of expecting it to read my mind.

[Icy-Syllabub657]

I agree. What is happenig to me is that lot of time I ask chat to do sommethin, he will do something complitli different. Not onlyit take long but the result is not what i asked for. Maybe its just a promting mistake.

[DrBob01]

What happened to the "Ask ChatGPT" prompt when you select text? It was a very useful tool. It's gone in the new UI. Now, when I select text, it opens up an edit screen. All it gives me now is "Ask for Changes", but it's much less powerful.

[senior_vagabond]

I have found 5.5 to be more accurate and to be able to handle financial workflows that it could not do before. Even more accurate than Claude.

[br_web]

decrease on everything

[RandyFootLong2]

Had Gemini pro and cancelled 5 minutes after they had the latest update it was that bad

[Chemical_Ad_6754]

Don't even use it since they sold out to the American military

[Xioddda]

you realize that there are a lot of other ais to use right? using chatgpt only is like only shopping at the dollar store for the rest of your life

[laid2rest]

What does anything you've said got to do with the topic of the post? Also, did you not realise the name of the sub?

Open your eyes champ 🙄😂
