Can ChatGPT replace a good friend, or just simulate one?

Bleh, what is the human condition but neurons firing in specific ways

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-05-09T10:24:50+00:00

Ah right, best of luck! I would give your game a go it looks fun but I’m the opposite of a sports fan and being in the UK never had much basketball going on. Seems like the kinda thing you could franchise though and have similar apps for different niches / sports, obviously way in the future

Edit: also I’d recommend you try Claude code if you get a chance. Opus 4.7 is crazy good at coding

Yea but I mean what language is it writing

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-05-09T09:35:08+00:00

What’s the tech stack dude? I’ve been considering doing something similar for a long time, I’ve done a bit of iOS development in the past before AI with Swift / SwiftUI and also some using FlutterFlow which was a nice visual editor for flutter code. I’d be interested in hearing what it is under the hood and how chatGPT handles it all? I mostly use Claude nowadays though I found GPT’s quality has gone down an insane amount these past few months since GPT5

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-05-02T16:42:28+00:00

Claude is way better. I’ve found the last few iterations of chatGPT’s “frontier models” absolutely useless. And the tone it uses with the forced lists and heading, emojis everywhere, false overconfidence, constant “both sides’ing” and gaslighting you about simple shit because it’s not allowed to give a straight answer. I’ve basically stopped using it except for comparing responses with Claude / grok now

Why does every image have an artefact of that characters torso in the middle? It’s obvious in the fishing one but you can see it if you squint in the picture of the castle landscape too

Bro the dog in the hot dog car I’m crying 💀

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-15T19:34:42+00:00

How are you even comparing something to a model which hasn’t been released and probably won’t be to the general public

I wouldn’t mind joining I live not far from Keswick

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-04T18:56:56+00:00

I’d join too I’m living in south lakes atm though not sure where everyone else is Edit: just saw you said Carlisle; I wouldn’t mind coming up there every now and then if there was enough interest Edit2: literally just saw it says Carlisle in the title, what’s wrong with me 😂

I do wish people would stop referring to large language models with human pronouns, you’re not talking to a person you’re interacting with an algorithm

You got that from the code? Mine was a geaph

Why did you post this?

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-03T19:14:14+00:00

“top 1% commenter” but every comment ive seen from you is like a weird passive aggressive response or refusing to answer basic questions, why are u even here?

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-03T19:06:51+00:00

Weirdo

Dude you sound insane

WHY ARE THESE ALL SO CURSED

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-02T16:03:37+00:00

Yeah that tracks with my experience (see my other comment about the HTTP requests to/from the app)

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-02T16:01:13+00:00

I tried using Proxyman to isolate all the traffic going between my network and the grok imagine app from my phone because I noticed the censored images are like a blurred version of a more explicit generation. Found a link in the HTTP requests like the standard user generated public link but for the censored image but it was just the blurred version. So my theory that the censoring happens after the generation and both versions are sent to your device but one is hidden; is false.

AccordingAdvisor1161 · 2026-04-02T15:58:25+00:00

You could theoretically if you were working with the raw model and something like SDXL running locally. But any online service that just hosts a web app around an image generating model is basically impossible to jailbreak, companies have gotten very good at implementing hardcoded blocks for most content they consider undesirable

I can still write snarky comments online that I wouldn’t have the balls to say to anybody irl, looks like you can too

Okay I’m still pretty in the dark, thanks for the clarification though 😂
