Nonsense. Less people are using it because there are viable alternatives and the broader novelty has worn off.
I use it every day in my job and the quality of answers only drops off when prompts are poorly crafted.
By and large, the average user doesn’t understand the fundamentals of prompt engineering.
The suggestion that “answers are increasingly dumber” is embarrassing.
I was skeptical at first but I've seen enough evidence now. There are definitely times when it's dumb as a brick, whether the filters just get in the way too much, or whether they've implemented other changes idk. I'd really love the unchained version.
On 23rd of March 2023 I asked a family member to give me a prompt and they asked "what day is 19th of April?".
It answered "The 19th of April falls on a Tuesday.", which was true last year but completely misleading if I thought we were taling about the coming month.
Was it wrong or just unclear? Either way it wasn't helpful.
