I’ve definitely experienced this.

I used ChatGPT to write cover letters based on my resume before, and other tasks.

I used to give it data and tell chatGPT to “do X with this data”. It worked great.
In a separate chat, I told it to “do Y with this data”, and it also knocked it out of the park.

Weeks later, excited about the tech, I repeat the process. I tell it to “do x with this data”. It does fine.

In a completely separate chat, I tell it to “do Y with this data”… and instead it gives me X. I tell it to “do Z with this data”, and it once again would really rather just do X with it.

For a while now, I have had to feed it more context and tailored prompts than I previously had to.

The worst part is that it took them years after it came out to be a known risk before they actually sent me a replacement machine.

Having to choose between the risk of heart failure and the risk of cancer sure was fun…

The reason that makes the most sense in one of the articles I’ve read is that they fired him after he tried to push out one of the board members.

Replacing that board member with an ally would have cemented control over the board for a time. They might not have felt his was being honest in his motives for the ousting, so it was basically fire now, or lose the option to fire him in the future.

The federation part was appreciated on my end at least. This instance is a big part of lemmy experience, and would have been odd for it to suddenly disappear.

The responses aren’t exactly deterministic, there are certain attacks that work 70% of the time and you just keep trying.

I got past all the levels released at the time including 8 when I was doing it a while back.
