GPT-3.5 performance for basic programming tasks used to be just fine, but over the past few weeks the output quality has dropped dramatically. All of this tweaking definitely has it's downsides.
- rrr_oh_man 3y agoThey’re probably retraining something right now
- nicce 3y agoProbably just reducing resources with the cost of quality. GPT-4 suddenly has started be much faster.
- pps 3y agoIf you prefer using GPT-3.5 due to its lower price or speed, wouldn't it be better to switch to Haiku? People were even able to match the performance of Opus when they added a couple of examples to the prompt.
- DrSiemer 3y ago"Unfortunately, Claude.ai is only available in certain regions right now." GPT 3.5 used to be good enough, so I never bothered getting a paid account. I also heard some reports about 3.5 actually being better for the type of coding tasks I usually offload.
- debian3 3y agoYou can use haiku for free here if you dont need the api https://labs.perplexity.ai https://labs.perplexity.ai
- novaRom 3y agoWhy someone still would use GPT-3.5 in 2024? There are tens of fully open models available which beat GPT-3.5 in every possible skill and you can run them locally.
- DrSiemer 3y agoI tried all I can run on an RTX 3080 Ti, but none got close for the kind of basic tasks I like to outsource to an LLM. Which would you recommend for mostly node/react/python/php work? I do have a 4090 available at work, if the extra 8GB vRAM makes a big difference. The task I used as a test case was converting existing PHP & JS code (views and controllers) with static texts to files with dynamic translation references.
