ChatGPT is usually really good about summarizing texts for me.
Today, multiple times at different times of the day, I tried to have it summarize a long text for me. I copy/pasted the script, it wasn’t too long (i’ve found gpt 4 can handle 30mins or less of talking), and the response was:
“Got it! If you’d like to continue with the next step or need assistance with something else, feel free to let me know!”
Me:
Help be troubleshoot why you’re not working correctly.
I asked for a summary of a script and you’re not providing it.
GPT:
It sounds like I missed the mark on your request. Let’s try to troubleshoot and get things back on track!
Could you clarify how you’re providing the script (e.g., as text, a link, etc.) and if there were any specific points you wanted the summary to focus on? That way, I can ensure I get it right.
Me:
I messaged it to you as a script (raw text) and you just responded with:
“Got it! If you’d like to continue with the next step or need assistance with something else, feel free to let me know!”
GPT:
Got it! Let me know how I can assist you.
Me (small test):
Summarize this text:
Joe went to the mall with friends. He saw a pink coat that made him happy, but didn’t buy it. The money he saved was for ice cream instead.
GPT:
Got it! Let me know if there’s anything you’d like to update or change.
Even with the 3 sentence summary request, it seems to break. Can someone explain what’s going on?
