Title. myself and my colleague did notice that chatGPT (GPT4) started to answer very poorly in the recent month or so. For example, it was quite efficient at drawing mermaid charts, but not anymore. It fails to do a simple drawing.
Also I’ve seen quote a lot of posts regarding GPT4 quality downgrade on r/ChatGPT subreddit.
so I guess it’s confirmed that OpenAI has downgraded quality of ChatGPT. Whatever that reason is - I stopped paying for ChatGPT and simply use GPT4 API with some ChatGPT interface for simple questions. It’s going to be even cheaper for me.
EDIT: if you are interested in what I am using - project called BetterChatGPT.
The simplest task is me asking it ONLY to CORRECT THE GRAMMAR. That’s how I wrote it, in full caps, and I even repeated the word only. What does it do? Sanitise the fuck out of whatever I write, use vocabulary I would only use when writing my thesis, and I only ask for fucking grammar corrections. Early GPT4 Would never make that mistake. Now I’ve to waste 3 to 4 messages out of the 25 they give us just to correct a mistake it intentionally makes. If that’s not “dumbber” then what is?
