I think they overtrained on scientific papers or such as it would spout really sophisticated sounding nonsense with a ton of complicated verbs and adjectives. 4.6 was definitely better in that regard. The more I use these tools the more I think they’re not actually that revolutionary. I mean it’s still amazing what they can do but they have very clear limitations it seems.

it was also astonishingly lazy. Would just ask me to write test scripts. I asked it to create simple UI buttons for testing some basic functions so I could share it with a client, and it gave me curl commands instead - and then defended it by saying that the UI is wasted work

Frustrating because if I have a tool, I expect a tool to do what I tell it to do. Tools shouldn't have any opinions on how they should be used
