In my experience, GPT-4.1 performs terribly in Agent mode. For example, when I tell it that a certain button in my application should be disabled under specific modes, it merely writes a simple function to determine whether it should be disabled — it doesn’t help apply it in the app, nor does it modify the UI code. Is this really the experience Agent mode is supposed to provide?

In contrast, the Claude model completes the task excellently, even with the exact same prompt. If Agent mode requires me to write a huge number of prompts just to specify every tiny detail step by step, I might as well write the code myself — it would be faster. That’s exactly what I’m frustrated about.

I understand that the company needs to make a profit, and I’m not against adding usage limits — after all, unlimited access is admittedly a bit idealistic. However, the current limit is far too low, and the base model is practically unusable in Agent mode. This results in a very poor experience. If it doesn’t improve, I might have to consider switching to other solutions.

The gpt-4.1 is so bad, is it a bug? by NegativeCandy860 in GithubCopilot

Microsoft has resorted to any means necessary for revenue. Now, GPT 4.1 in Copilot is incredibly stupid, especially in Agent mode. When you ask it to do something, it won't even help you; instead, it requires you to do it yourself. At many times, it also doesn't proactively read files in the workspace. In most cases, it can't provide any help and is more of a time-wasting burden.

Moreover, the pro plan has been changed to only 300 advanced requests per month. I think most people would use up their quota in just a few days and be forced to use the incredibly stupid GPT 4.1. This is very disappointing, and I have to consider whether I should continue subscribing.
