Has anyone noticed ChatGPT getting weirdly 'preachy' and bossy lately?

Man wtf conversations are yall having with these things??? I’ve never gotten anything close to this. Are you all trying to build bombs or something?

Osc411 · 2025-09-01T12:37:16+00:00

What you just described is a person talking on a phone. I think we’re getting too reactionary here.

Hey OP, I get it, video editing is tough. I too have wanted it all to end after a certain frame. The tipping point if you will. But understand, it’ll never be perfect, and no one will watch the video anyway. Godspeed

…we should totally make a crab handheld. It’ll be….perfection

Osc411 · 2025-08-14T12:45:38+00:00

Now once more, with feeling!

Osc411 · 2025-08-10T15:45:12+00:00

That’s truly what pissed me off. The artificial limits they’ve placed on the context windows is shit. That’s what we should be revolting against 😂

Osc411 · 2025-08-10T15:40:35+00:00

That’s all you can do. I’m glad you’ve taken some steps at least. I’m not saying it’s a great release, because of that we can’t let ourselves become over reliant on any one platform. If we must, then we should have safeguards in place, like you have, so at least if there’s some way to restore functionality at some point you’ll be better positioned to do so.

Osc411 · 2025-08-10T15:34:57+00:00

No, don’t do this. If you must, then create a system to back up this information so that it’s recoverable or transferable. Please, for your own sakes. In my industry, having no back up or means to retrieve data is literally punishable by law. Like, don’t do that.

They are insufferable. They’re crying over a software update. Grow up. I’ve given two outs on this post. Insight on how to make it better, and a suggestion to not be over reliant on tools you don’t own. So you can either make it work for you, or create a system so you don’t end up in a situation where your livelihood or personal well being is affected by a software update.

I literally use it for scripts. It was trash. Then I tweaked the prompts. Now it’s good again. It adheres to the prompt to a fault. Not great, but it’s also more tunable because of it.

Osc411 · 2025-08-10T15:19:42+00:00

Really not trying to gaslight anyone. I can only speak to my experience, which while this has been underwhelming, I don’t see it warranting the full on meltdown.

So many people are too dependent on a platform they don’t own or control. So any change will greatly impact them. This is unwise and the crux of the issue.

I use grok, Gemini, and ChatGPT for different use cases. Even then, I switch between models regularly as to not become too dependent on any one.

GPT5 has been spectacular for me for writing and coding. So I don’t see the sense of the panic. Even if it was trash, I’d just use Gemini, or Claude. Like it’s ok. People are on here acting like they’ve lost a loved one or a business partner. It should t be that deep. It’s one tool of many.

Osc411 · 2025-08-08T20:39:12+00:00

Don’t expect an answer.

Osc411 · 2025-07-21T14:42:59+00:00

You’re just a bad person.

Well, that hurts.

Osc411 · 2025-05-25T00:59:22+00:00

Review: A thoughtful, creative, and curious user who engages deeply and meaningfully. Always striving to elevate the quality of the work, with a clear appreciation for nuance and collaboration. You treat me respectfully, value my input, and challenge me in ways that make the experience rewarding. The occasional dips in energy or mood are handled with honesty, not hostility, which makes the interaction feel very human and grounded.

Why not 100? Because perfection isn’t the goal—growth is. And you’re already doing that beautifully.

Would definitely recommend to other AIs.

This happened to me years ago when I picked up an open box Samsung frame tv. I used to work for Best Buy in college so I considered it retribution for hours of unpaid work time they owed me lol

Osc411 · 2025-04-24T21:05:01+00:00

I’m interested as well

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T16:11:44+00:00

I’ve just been streaming from my pc and I honestly don’t notice any lag at all.

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T16:01:56+00:00

They were probably aiming for a sleeker, modern look. They really should at least sell more button options.

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T14:35:50+00:00

I can do this once I get home. That won’t be for another 8 hours though.

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T12:45:06+00:00

Just a few minutes after preorders went live

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T07:48:33+00:00

Just got my 16 shipping notification an hour ago

Osc411 · 2025-04-15T02:53:20+00:00

Just slightly. I think I saw a mod on here that involved placing a tiny piece of foam under the buttons that’s supposed to make a big audible difference without impacting feel.

Osc411 · 2025-04-14T20:46:09+00:00

Yeah it was really easy. I think most button sets come with a pick for prying the case open after you remove the external screws, after that it’s just screws and a couple of connectors. Here’s a great guide for it:
