Can someone point me in the direction of these alleged "good" AI please? All the ones I have discovered so far are fun little toys for an hour and then their massive problems become so apparent that I can't make myself take it seriously. Maybe Deepseek R1 was okay but ChatGPT is bottom of the barrel. So of course the ChatGPT guy is the one talking the loudest. I know I must be missing something because people are building cool stuff with them. But when I try it I spend an hour trying to get the thing to stop being an anti-pattern engine.
