Genuinely frightening how much they have nerfed ChatGPT for code development. - eviltoast

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.

    Any clue what the ‘mistake’ was for which it apologized?

      I mean, I could copy the code that works, but it’s not really the point.

      Not only did it apologize mid-codebox and not even comment it out, it started the code from the top again instead of actually fixing.

      Just so asinine and bad it’s not even worth analyzing further.
