Earlier this week I discussed an example of ChatGPT giving ‘placeholder’ answers in lieu of real answers. Below is an example of what that looks like. I could swear this didn’t used to happen, but it basically just ‘doesn’t’ answer your question. I’m interested how often other people see this behavior.

    Fun fact: Those placeholder comments are sometimes called pseudo-code.

      yeah well I’m not paying for pseudo code. It’s a waste of my time and a waste of a prompt. It’s also not an answer to the question being asked.
