I asked GPT4 to refactor a simple, working python script for my smart lights... and it completely butchered the code and apologized mid-generation.

No amount of pleading or correction would get it to function as it did just a week or two ago.

It is so over.

Oh great, so now I have to pay on top of my Plus membership?

A couple of prompts already cost be $0.03. I could easily run up hundreds of dollars if I used it as much as I have in the past.

Do you have any tips or preferring settings when using the Playground to code?

It does not add up that much unless you're tokenizing a metric ton of content. It's a few extra bucks and you can set a rate limit. I have rarely hit a 5 dollar mark with consistent writing. Limit it to a fiver and see how it goes. As for the settings, it is really model specific. There are a ton of guides out there, though for effective instructing. I believe Wolfram Alpha has a few. Their formatting is nice: https://medium.com/machine-minds/chatgpt-python-machine-learning-prompts-abefc544412c Playground pricing is what they use for commercial API use. It has to be affordable.

It actually works out cheaper in most cases to use the playground over actually paying for chat gpt plus
