It’s so frustrating.

Even very basic things like “Summarize this video transcipt” on GPTs built specifically for that purpose.

Firstly, it cannot even read text files anymore. It straight up “cannot access documents”. No idea why, sometimes it will act like it can, but it becomes obvious it’s hallucinating or only read part of the document.

So ok, paste info in. GPT will start giving you a detailed summary, and then just skip over like 40 fucking percent of the middle, and resume summarizing at the end.

I mean honestly, I’m hardly asking it to do complex shit.

I have absolutely no idea what lead to this decline, but it’s become so bad it is hardly even worth messing with it anymore. Such an absolute shame.

    There was just a post on HN about how GPT-4o is best at long context. Try that.
