I use Web ChatGPT with my Pro subscription to ideate and design, and both GPT Desktop app and Codex CLI on Windows to do work on a local machine. Part of my workflow is to have my ideation/design context transition to adding in orchestration responsibility until I can do a full hand off to a local context. Well, that workflow is turning out to have recently broken by a change in behavior. Long outputs from Web ChatGPT, at least into copyable blocks, are getting truncated. So when I have the Web ChatGPT create a prompt for a local context, the prompt is truncated. Even when I had it split a prompt in 2, the 2nd part was truncated. Sometimes I get a button to generate the rest of the prompt, but usually it just gets cutoff mid-line. I can no longer trust that Web ChatGPT has created a prompt I can simply paste into my local context. I even tried having it split the prompt into sections of 10K or fewer words. Did not solve the problem. Part 2 of 3 was arbitrarily truncated and part 3 never showed up. I hope that there is an understanding that Pro subscribers have, in general, Professional concerns and need for reliability. I can also understand OpenAI’s needs for conservation and frugality. If this is really necessary to keep costs down, then give us a mechanism to preserve our workflows and give us all the information we need to adapt before it is rolled out. I have spent 10’s of thousands of tokens trying to work around this and am feeling blindsided and frustrated. Also, I let the built-in AI pick the metadata for this post…it seems lackluster. Thank you for your time and trouble in dealing with issues generated by policies you ( overwhelmingly likely ) have little to no say in. ---

Thanks for explaining what you’ve tried, @aikyle9946. If the responses are still cutting off, please share your current model, and what is your current browser and version? Could you try the same request with the same model in an [incognito or private window](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/7996703-troubleshooting-chatgpt-error-messages) with extensions disabled and let me know whether the response still cuts off? Please keep conversation links, private prompts and account details out of your reply. ~ Ziad ---
