Quality Has Been on a Decline

Discussion

I used to actually get the answers I need quickly, and it would get whatever I wanted from one prompt, now i ask it a very simple question and i get an answer that is related, but not really what i want.

Also, what is it with all the assumptions? whether its small things like asking minor tech details on my laptop and it jumps into assuming how i operate my device and save my folders and give an answer based on that, even though i save the normal original way and not like i do it in a different odd way, it just assumes something and goes on with it.

This also is shown in Extended Thinking, i give it a complex task, and i watch the chain of thought, it almost always fucks up in the chain of thought and kind of like someone having a panic attack, so many assumptions about what the user wants and none of them are correct, i recall seeing "it would be best to ask the user how they want this done, but i already asked too many questions and i assume they want the answer quickly", while it had barely asked any questions, and i explicitly tell it to ask me questions, then it goes on with "i could not access the file the user uploaded, so i will user fillers for this" which is completely diabolical and goes against everything i want from the model..

This has been going on for a couple of weeks now, It is honestly getting frustrating, and im more and more being convinced to jump to another provider although ive been a Plus subscriber since it came out
