Just came here to confirm, since the subreddit is delusional about this being a illussion due to extended use of gpt.
I was a really happy plus subscriber a few months ago, I loved using the memory function to set up entire RPG games the thing runned for me, I could tell it what memories to edit and exactly how. I could clearly state when I was speaking in game, out of game, to the GM or to the ‘‘system’’.
I subscribed again yesterday, since now I have the money again. Sadly it is INCREDIBLY STUPID now. All those thing I used to do with it, imposible now, it won’t add stuff to it’s memory on request but it says it did, and will even argue when I tell it that there is nothing new in the memory. It can’t understand most of my instructions, even the really basic ones ‘‘write the instructions for a RPG game with this and that’’ and it will answer some generic shit about what’s good in a RPG, etc.
I requested a refund today, and decided that if they didn’t gave me my money back I’m never trying openAI again, luckly the did accepted my refund, so I’ll try again when they rollback to the first 4o or 3.5.
I have no idea what they did, because I don’t follow the updates of chatgpt, but whatever they did is horrible, I was happy to pay 4-5 months ago for 4.0, and was willing to pay for more memory if it was an option. Today I won’t even use chat gpt for free, I wen to claude, and managed to do what I wanted to do withing the frame of 200.000 tokens that AI can remember, way better than chat gpt, without paying yet.
