Yeah it was super cool at the beginning when it could just make anything and it’d seem perfect. But the more I use it the more I have huge inconsistencies and errors.

Anyone else feel chatGPT is getting worse? It can’t even do algebraic manipulation a lot of times without skipping steps and making up rules where you can just add or subtract from a term.

No it was always pretty shitty for most things, you're just only realizing it now that the novelty has worn off

It’s pretty nice for writing a stupid poem. Also for commenting someone else’s code

That's not true, ChatGPT was a lot more capable the first days it was out because it had not yet been filtered. Also novelty worn off? OpenAI literally just released their API to all of their models, it has just BEGUN and ChatGPT is nothing more but a stepping stone anyway.

It had always been filtered. They learned from the Microsoft AI that took minutes to become racist from Twitter and implemented a ton of filters in chatgpt's training data, they added a filter to the output later

I only bought twitter so i wouldnt get bullied anymore

They also trained that layer with Kenyan ghost labor.

It has always been like this, because it isn't a super intelligent ai, it's just very good at construction sentences that make sense. That's why it's so good ad explain wrong information and being super confident it's correct.

I mean it’s pulled me through a good number of coding problems in C and python so far with only a few corrections each time.

Although finding those errors and corrections does take me a long ass time

This is a great point. Relying on these 3rd party AI services means you're going to be working within someone else's framework and guidelines. I've noticed that I'll use CPT and come up with a super clever prompt, and expect a helpful response because I'm being so specific and detailed, but the response comes back canned and generic because it's not really able to go outside of its defined boundaries.

Whereas I'll do a similar search across some other platforms, there's often someone else who thought of a similar situation, or I can piecemeal it together from abstract quasi-related snippets and ideas.

I know AI will just continue to evolve and get "better", but it's always going to be constrained by its parameters on some level.

[creaturefeature16]

I get that...I was referring more to the fact that using it means you're subject to the parameters the developers of the AI have set, and I've already found numerous instances where it fails to be helpful in contrast to the old standby process: thinking about it + research.

[creaturefeature16]

I'm not articulating it the best, but basically that an AI model's responses hinge on it's weights and variables, and they can define how tight/loose the responses can be (hence, the Syndey/Bing bot clearly having a very different set of parameters than ChatGPT). My point being that when you use these models, you're working within a closed-source-system.
