The 404 links are truly bizarre. Nearly every link to github.com seems to be 404. That seems like something that should be trivial for a tool to verify.

- platevoltage 1y agoYeah. The fact that I can't ask ChatGPT for a source makes the tool way less useful. It will straight up say "I verified all of these links" too.
- mh- 1y agoAs you identified, not paying for it is a big part of the issue. Running these things is expensive, and they're just not serving the same experience to non-paying users. One could argue this is a bad idea on their part, letting people get a bad taste of an inferior product. And I wouldn't disagree, but I don't know what a sustainable alternative approach is.
- xigoi 1y agoSurely the cost of sending a few HTTP requests and seeing if they 404 is negligible compared to AI inference.
- platevoltage 1y agoI would have no issue if the free version of ChatGPT told me straight up “You gotta pay for links and sources”. It doesn’t do that.
- mh- 1y ago100% agree with that, as I alluded to in my last sentence. And that honestly seems like it might be a good product strategy in the short term.

Perhaps validating every part of a response is a big overhead both financially and might even throw off the model and make it less accurate in other ways.
