Theres at least a half dozen repeated queries with a 3+ month delay between in my chat history with chatGPT. The nerfing is that it does not try as hard to guess what you want and instead gives you a comment going “//fill this in” instead. This is with identical queries from February versus June or July. So that forces you at a minimum to query more. The other thing I noticed it doing is going “This is beyond the scope of X. Please speak with Y to get further information”. Extremely irritating responses that were not there in February for the exact same queries. Articles like this are paid actors.
They biased the model to return shorter answers. Remember that "Continue" button if the reply was too long and cut off? I haven't seen it since they updated the model.
And to get a non-abridged version of the answer I need to ask it to provide "a detailed and comprehensive answer" more often.
Exactly my experience. I cancelled my subscription a few weeks ago due to these issues, I now have to constantly follow answers with “please give me the complete answer, dont limit yourself to a shallow response”. Really frustrating to deal with. And I’m also spending way too much time pointing obvious mistakes…
I’ve had exactly the same experience, it’s infuriating and I suspect it’s to ease the server load for inferencing. I don’t know how the author hasn’t encountered this.
