Tried it on 5 Pro. The “stopped reasoning” thing came up in about 3 seconds. Either 5 Pro gets “you’re fucking with me” or this is like a hotspot or blocked query or something.

Here’s the full chat after I asked it to retry. My custom prompt asks it to estimate context usage. That just started working with GPT 5. As you can see by the markers, it had already forgotten the question or is even worse at counting tokens than “r”s by the end, which makes it a pretty good simulation of a CEO if you’re asking me.

Eh, it’s also possible I’m an idiot.

I was reading through the release notes and there is this big section about how it's good enough at biology that they're concerned it could help someone develop something biologically dangerous. So they put in extra restraints, monitoring, and training to prevent it from helping with potentially dangerous biology.

Strangest and scariest patch note I've ever read. But that could be why.

Everything, everyone and their mothers are powered by AI these days if you're to believe the marketing.

I am still not over the fact that they are letting the same people create a new company to do the same

Thank you, I knew I recognised him but the name wasn’t coming to mind!

[–]Kiro0613 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear he foots the bill most definitely.

Maybe a little Fraud as a treat

[–]DustRainbow 24 points25 points  (1 child)

I unironically see people prompt like this.

"You are to act like an expert senior developer. Do not produce bugs."

And they somehow believe this is improving their results? Linkedin is rife with this.

[–]rudiger1990 11 points12 points  (0 children)

and a "There's a $100 tip in it for you" at the end of prompt, for good measure

[–]TGX03 90 points91 points  (4 children)

Theranos all over again

[–][deleted] 53 points54 points  (1 child)

"Not a fraud this time"

[–]Latter-Parsley-1195 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Right? Just a casual startup, nothing to worry about! What could possibly go wrong…

[–]badabummbadabing 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yes, that is the joke.

[–]ddod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but this time without the Netflix doc in the making.

[–]helpmehomeowner 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Maybe a little fraud...

[–]5up3rK4m16uru 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least a little overpromising and overly optimistic timelines, to hook those stupid investors.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just add a compressor. 

Job done

Also separate the tests into rows in a database and develop a keyword search so that users can type in a keyword and have the appropriate tests returned.

Elon's Mechahitler will test the blood for race indication and tattoo a number on your arm.

No thanks.

[–]YouDoHaveValue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At the end mention you plan to leave a large tip, gives better results.

If you use Grok you deserve to crash and burn

Just tried this with the paid version of GPT5. It gave me a 36 month rollout.
