We are getting to the point that its not unreasonable to think that "Generate an SVG of a pelican riding a bicycle" could be included in some training data. It would be a great way to ensure an initial thumbs up from a prominent

Claude 2.0 was laughably bad. I remember wondering why any investor would be funding them to compete against OpenAI. Today I cancelled my ChatGPT Pro because Claude Max does everything I need it to.

True that “sleep better, eat better, exercise” is generic advice ignoring constraints. Like telling someone with insomnia, three kids, and a night shift to “sleep better” or telling someone broke to “have more money.” But being difficult to
