The free version of ChatGPT, which is now calling itself 3.5, has a seemingly consistent type of answer whenever I ask it how to code something I don't know how to do. It outputs some boilerplate code, and inserts a method with comments saying "insert logic here" - entirely sidestepping the request. You can say that's remarkably human-like, but if it was a human cow-orker, you would not keep them on the payroll. It is a cheat, like ELIZA, like SHRDLU, like a useless employee. I asked ChatGPT-3.5 for the usual rejoinder to complainers: "If you're looking for an enhanced experience, you might want to consider trying out the paid version called ChatGPT-4. It offers even more capabilities and improvements. Feel free to explore the options available to find the best fit for your needs!""
