ChatGPT has gotten dumb. I used to have to code check it's answer every few responses. Now it's every response. It wrote me an if/else statement the other day where if and else had the same outcome.
Strange that this isn't top 1 comment in this thread.
The only reason why I unsubsribed from ChatGPT is because what you mentioned - it became dumber. Now I use GPT4 API via https://bettergpt.chat/ and instead of paying 22€ a month, now I only end up with approx 4-5eur a month depending on my usage.
I would probably agree to pay 50€ a month if it wouldn't progress backwards and actually gets better over time, but it is not happening.
I had a thought about this. I wonder if they intentionally made it dumb so you would opt for the paid version.
They are busimess, their goal is money.
I am pretty sure they "optimized" it, so it's cheaper to run and as a result - dumber AI.
