I had early access to GPT-4.
I don't know the first thing about you. I don't want to call you a liar, or an AI bro, influencer, etc.
I couldn't get GPT-4 to output the simplest of C programs (a 10-liner, think "warmup round" programming interview question). The first N attempts wouldn't build. After fixing them manually - the programs all crash (due to various printf, formatting, overflow issues). I tried numerous times.
Pretty much every other interaction with GPT-4 since then was similarly disappointing and shallow (not just programming tasks - but also information extraction, summarization, creative writing, etc).
I just can't bring myself to fall for the hype.

I misremembered, I fixed the `/` prefix myself, it was a one character fix and not worth the effort. The diff it generated came later since my television never returns a 404. Though, admittedly, I just re-prompted GPT-4 with the same prompts and ended up with similar output - so maybe not the best example of a regression?
