Overview
- OpenAI has confirmed that its AI chatbot, ChatGPT, has been underperforming, with users reporting that it has become 'lazier' in responding to complex requests.
- Users have reported instances where ChatGPT has refused to complete labor-intensive tasks such as generating code or transcribing text, instead providing partial answers or templates.
- OpenAI has stated that this behavior is not intentional and that the model has not been updated since November 11, 2023.
- The company is currently investigating the issue and looking into solutions to fix the problem.
- Despite the performance issues, ChatGPT remains the most popular chatbot of its kind, with over 100 million active weekly users as of November 2023.
