I can’t reproduce. Maybe others reported the error and someone adjusted the expected answer, I do not know enough about OpenAI operations to say for sure.

The reason this bothers me is that comments like this reinforce the believes of people that could otherwise find value in these tools.

But I think points like this would be better made in shared chats or screenshots, since we do not have something like a core dump or stacktrace to attach.

And while I am not saying OP did this, I have seen technically skilled engineers asserting/implying that llm/chatbots aren’t good or not useful to them look at their chat log that a multitude of topics that I am sure would impact the result of the query.

Yes. It can be an UX problem. Yes. It can be an algorithmc problem. But they are just tools that can be used wrong and not a perfect mechanical brain.
