There are so many topics where it just makes stuff up. I asked it about an API today and it didn't know, so just dumped random SQL queries. I tell it that it is not SQL and it just does it in Python instead. Supposed to be JS/JSON.

I hate it when it does that kind of stuff with coding and particularly obscure third-party APIs sometimes.

Was this GPT-4? With 3.5 it sent me smack into a community of bemused devs who didn't know they had an API to speak of.

So I got to hear about how much GPT sucks, our jobs are secure, yada yada, oh and btw no help with code, no suggestions even.

It was just playing dumb, until you revealed information that only the murderer would know.

I mean, just look in the kitchen, everybody can see it was the poor dogs that did it!

(Actually you don't wanna look in the kitchen.)

As an informational interface, GPT is lossy enough to give JPEG a serious run for its money...
