And it feels like the output by ChatGPT is getting worse every month.

It's learning from humans, that's to be expected

How appropriate

AI is honestly just A most of the time.

yeah the response quality is so much worse and it has that weird "take my answer and shut up" attitude now.

I remember about 10 months ago or so ChatGPT used to output some surprisingly top-tier code. I'd ask it to create a method with some required functionality and it would output the code, fully commented and everything. I didn't have to edit the code, it just worked, and it was more or less efficient.

Now? I can't even get it to write comments for code I give to it.

Interesting. You can't choose which "generation" you use?

The free version or the paid version? Part of it is that they're trying to push people towards the paid version, which is a much more sophisticated model.

Both, I was using gpt4 for some processing of text. The July 20th update came about and for the exact same input it could nolonger follow my directions, I had to tweak the prompt a bunch to handle a whole new set of edge cases.
