For all the naysayers in the comments, the elephant in the room that no one quite wants to admit, is that GPT4 is still far better than everything else out there
- kossTKR 3y agoIs there anything promising out there? Is crowd sourced training still unfeasible? I remember how fast the diffusion world moved in the first year but it seems it's stalled somewhat compared to first midjourney then Dall-e 3. Is it the same with text models?
- bugglebeetle 3y agoGPT-4 is the best general model and specifically very good at coding, if correctly promoted. Lots of open source stuff is good at various tasks (e.g. NLP stuff), but nothing is near to the same overall level of performance.
- mezeek 3y agoGrok? Just kidding
- nmfisher 3y agoI cancelled my GPT4 subscription because I found Claude more useful for code and Qwen for Chinese language tasks. It might be better on average but I don’t think it’s better for every task. All the others are only going to get better too.
- unshavedyak 3y agoCan you go into depth? I’ve used ChatGPT Pro and Phind extensively, didn’t know about Claude and code. Curious to give it a try
- nmfisher 3y agoI generally use it for boilerplate tasks like “here’s some code, write unit tests” or “here’s a JSON object, write a model class and parser function”. Claude is significantly faster, so even if it requires a couple more prompt iterations than GPT4, I still get the result I need earlier than with GPT4. GPT4 also recently developed this annoying tendency to only give you one or two examples of what you asked for, then say “you can write the rest on your own based on this template”. I can’t overstate how annoying this was.

I can’t overstate how annoying this was. The last model "update" has really ruined GPT-4 in this regard.
- dri_ft 3y agoWhen was this? I noticed chatGPT becoming succinct almost to the point of being standoffish about a week or two ago. Probably exacerbated by my having some custom instructions to tame its prior prolixity.
- icelancer 3y agoAbout a week ago, I noticed it, tweeted it, and a bunch of people said that /r/chatGPT and other forums noticed the really poor context-awareness around the same time.
- qingcharles 3y agoClaude is superior for me on writing summaries of large documents.
- jack_riminton 3y ago"All the others are only going to get better too." Yes, including OpenAI, who were already miles ahead :)
- icelancer 3y agoPhind is the only thing that I've supplemented GPT-4 with, which is still pretty impressive.
