Users of OpenAI's GPT-4 are complaining that the AI model is performing worse lately. Industry insiders say a redesign of GPT-4 could be to blame.

Might be right but in my experience a lack of skill in conversing with AI is a much greater factor in determining it's usefulness. It's almost always going to defer to the user. It's like when someone is dealing with tech support and they tell them to try turning it off and on again. If that really is the solution, and the user insists that it is not, CGPT is going to make something up just to appease the user's request.

Users have to know that CGPT isn't magic. How they behave affects how it behaves. Kind of like talking to actual people, which is what it's essentially trying to simulate.
